Quinone-catalyzed oxidative deformylation: synthesis of imines from amino alcohols
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new method for imine synthesis by way of quinone-catalyzed oxidative deformylation of 1,2-amino alcohols is reported. A wide range of readily accessible amino alcohols and primary amines can be reacted to provide N-protected imine products. The methodology presented provides a novel organocatalytic approach for imine synthesis and demonstrates the synthetic versatility of quinone-catalyzed oxidative C-C bond cleavage.

Direct and mild palladium-catalyzed aerobic oxidative synthesis of imines from alcohols and amines under ambient conditions.
By ligand, TEMPO, and base screening, we developed a mild and green one-pot imine synthesis from alcohols and amines via a low-loading palladium-catalyzed tandem aerobic alcohol oxidation-dehydrative condensation reaction that can be readily carried out in open air at room temperature.
متن کاملEnantioselective synthesis of alcohols and amines by iridium-catalyzed hydrogenation, transfer hydrogenation, and related processes.
The preparation of chiral alcohols and amines by using iridium catalysis is reviewed. The methods presented include the reduction of ketones or imines by using hydrogen (hydrogenations), isopropanol, formic acid, or formate (transfer hydrogenations). Also dynamic and oxidative kinetic resolutions leading to chiral alcohols and amines are included. Selected literature reports from early contribu...
متن کاملDehydrogenative Synthesis of Imines from Alcohols and Amines Catalyzed by a Ruthenium N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complex
A new method for the direct synthesis of imines from alcohols and amines is described where hydrogen gas is liberated. The reaction is catalyzed by the ruthenium N-heterocyclic carbene complex [RuCl2(IiPr)(p-cymene)] in the presence of the ligand DABCO and molecular sieves. The imination can be applied to a variety of primary alcohols and amines and can be combined with a subsequent addition re...
متن کاملCu(II)-catalyzed asymmetric boron conjugate addition to α,β-unsaturated imines in water.
Enantioselective conjugate addition of bis(pinacolato)diboron to α,β-unsaturated imines proceeds smoothly in water in the presence of a chiral copper(II) complex consisting of Cu(OAc)2 and chiral 2,2'-bipyridine. The corresponding β-boryl imines, which were oxidized to β-hydroxy imines, further leading to γ-amino alcohols, were obtained in high yields and high enantioselectivities.
متن کاملRhodium-catalyzed oxidative amidation of allylic alcohols and aldehydes: effective conversion of amines and anilines into amides
The rhodium-catalyzed oxidative amidation of allylic alcohols and aldehydes is reported. In situ generated [(BINAP)Rh]BF4 catalyzes the one-pot isomerization/oxidative amidation of allylic alcohols or direct amidation of aldehydes using acetone or styrene as the hydrogen acceptor. The conditions are general, affording good to excellent yields with a wide array of amine and aniline nucleophiles,...
