چکیده

The first regioselective ortho-lithiation at the 4-position of simple pyridine derivatives containing a 3-oxetane unit has been achieved using n-butyllithium as base. Electrophilic quenching of the resulting lithio species provides a rapid access to a broad range of new functionalized pyridine oxetane building blocks.

Lithiation and Substitution of N′-(ω-Phenylalkyl)-N,N-dimethylureas

Lithiation of N′-phenethyl-N,N-dimethylurea with three equivalents of tert-butyllithium in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran at –78 °C takes place on the nitrogen and on the side-chain of the CH2 next to the phenyl ring (α-lithiation). The 2-lithio isomer can be obtained via bromine–lithium exchange of N′-2-(2-bromophenyl)ethyl-N,N-dimethylurea using methyllithium followed by tertbutyllithium in tetrah...

Intramolecular carbolithiation of N-allyl-ynamides: an efficient entry to 1,4-dihydropyridines and pyridines – application to a formal synthesis of sarizotan

We have developed a general synthesis of polysubstituted 1,4-dihydropyridines and pyridines based on a highly regioselective lithiation/6-endo-dig intramolecular carbolithiation from readily available N-allyl-ynamides. This reaction, which has been successfully applied to the formal synthesis of the anti-dyskinesia agent sarizotan, further extends the use of ynamides in organic synthesis and fu...

A novel method for the preparation of hitherto unknown symmetrical bis(2-halo-3-pyridyl) dichalcogenides (E = S, Se and Te) by the oxidation of intermediate 2-halo-3-pyridyl chalcogenolate, prepared by lithiation of 2-halo pyridines using lithium diisopropylamine is being reported. All the newly synthesized compounds have been characterized through elemental analysis employing various spectrosc...

Lithiation of N'-benzyl-N,N-dimethylurea and its substituted derivatives with t-BuLi (3.3 equiv) in anhydrous THF at 0 °C followed by reaction with various electrophiles afforded a range of 3-substituted isoindolin-1-ones in high yields.

Regioselective functionalization of 2-arylazetidines: evaluating the ortho-directing ability of the azetidinyl ring and the α-directing ability of the N-substituent.

The regioselective lithiation-functionalization of 2-arylazetidines has been explored. The nature of the N-substituent is mainly responsible for a regioselectivity switch. ortho-Lithiation occurred, using hexyllithium as a greener base, in N-alkylazetidines, while α-benzylic lithiation has been observed with N-Boc azetidines.
