Iridium-Catalyzed Reductive Nitro-Mannich Cyclization
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new chemoselective reductive nitro-Mannich cyclization reaction sequence of nitroalkyl-tethered lactams has been developed. Relying on the rapid and chemoselective iridium(I)-catalyzed reduction of lactams to the corresponding enamine, subsequent nitro-Mannich cyclization of tethered nitroalkyl functionality provides direct access to important alkaloid natural-product-like structures in yields up to 81 % and in diastereoselectivities that are typically good to excellent. An in-depth understanding of the reaction mechanism has been gained through NMR studies and characterization of reaction intermediates. The new methodology has been applied to the total synthesis of (±)-epi-epiquinamide in four steps.

متن کاملIridium-Catalyzed Arylative Cyclization of Alkynones by 1,4-Iridium Migration**
1,4-Metal migrations enable the remote functionalization of C-H bonds, and have been utilized in a wide variety of valuable synthetic methods. The vast majority of existing examples involve the 1,4-migration of palladium or rhodium. Herein, the stereoselective synthesis of complex polycycles by the iridium-catalyzed arylative cyclization of alkynones with arylboronic acids is described. To our ...

A new method for one-pot synthesis of 2,3-substituted piperidine from N-PMP aldimine and aqueous glutaraldehyde via formal [4+2] cycloaddition is reported. This reaction involves organocatalytic direct Mannich reaction-reductive cyclization with high yields (up to 90%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99%). The practicability of this method is also shown at a gram scale as well as thr...

Asymmetric cyclization of alkenoic acids was realized by the use of an iridium/chiral bisphosphine catalyst, giving high yields of the corresponding γ-lactones with good enantioselectivity.
متن کاملPTSA-catalyzed Mannich-type-cyclization-oxidation tandem reactions: one-pot synthesis of 1,3,5-substituted pyrazoles from aldehydes, hydrazines and alkynes.
A convenient one-pot Mannich-type-cyclization-oxidation tandem process has been developed for the synthesis of 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoles derivatives from aldehydes, hydrazines and alkynes using p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (PTSA) as a multifunctional catalyst. This method provides a flexible and rapid route to 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoles.
