Microwave-assisted benzyl-transfer reactions of commercially available 2-benzyloxy-1-methylpyridinium triflate.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Benzylation of alcohols and other substrates under thermal conditions translates smoothly from conventional heating into MW-assisted organic synthesis (MAOS). Reactions times are decreased from hours to minutes while good to excellent yields are maintained. MW heating should be considered for benzylation of high-value substrates using the title reagent.

Synthesis of benzyl esters using 2-benzyloxy-1-methylpyridinium triflate.
Triethylamine (Et3N) mediates esterification reactions between the title reagent (1) and carboxylic acids. Alcohols, phenols, amides, and other sensitive functionality are not affected; a dual role for Et3N as a promoter and a scavenger is postulated. Benzyl esters are obtained from substrates including amino acid and sugar derivatives.
متن کاملConvenient method for preparing benzyl ethers and esters using 2-benzyloxypyridine
2-Benzyloxy-1-methylpyridinium triflate (1) is emerging as a mild, convenient, and in some cases uniquely effective new reagent for the synthesis of benzyl ethers and esters. This article provides a revised benzyl transfer protocol in which N-methylation of 2-benzyloxypyridine delivers the active reagent in situ. Observations on the appropriate choice of solvent (toluene vs. trifluorotoluene) a...
متن کاملSynthesis of Disaccharide Nucleosides Utilizing the Temporary Protection of the 2',3'-cis-Diol of Ribonucleosides by a Boronic Ester.
Disaccharide nucleosides are an important class of natural compounds that have a variety of biological activities. In this study, we report on the synthesis of disaccharide nucleosides utilizing the temporary protection of the 2',3'-cis-diol of ribonucleosides, such as adenosine, guanosine, uridine, 5-metyluridine, 5-fluorouridine and cytidine, by a boronic ester. The temporary protection of th...
متن کاملMicrowave-assisted concise total syntheses of quinazolinobenzodiazepine alkaloids.
[reactions: see text] One-pot total syntheses of the quinazolinobenzodiazepine alkaloids sclerotigenin (1), (+/-)-circumdatin F (2), and (+/-)-asperlicin C (3) via novel microwave-assisted domino reactions were achieved in 55%, 32%, and 20% yields, respectively, from commercially available starting materials. A two-step total synthesis of (+/-)-benzomalvin A (4) was accomplished with an overall...
