Facile and efficient KOH-catalysed reduction of esters and tertiary amides.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Esters and tertiary amides were efficiently reduced to their corresponding alcohols and amines in high yields under mild and environmentally friendly conditions. The presented KOH-catalysed system involves a simple hydrosilylation procedure that is carried out under solvent-free conditions and does not require the use of inert conditions.

Triphenyl phosphine(PPh3), an efficient and reusable catalyst, catalysed the synthesis of 2-amino-3-cyano-6-methyl-4-aryl-4H-pyran-5-ethylcarboxylate derivatives by one-pot condensation of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile and ethyl acetoacetate in EtOH-H2O (1:1) at reflux conditions. The results show that ...
متن کاملHighly chemoselective metal-free reduction of tertiary amides.
This communication describes the chemoselective metal-free reduction of tertiary amides to the corresponding amines. Hantzsch ester is used as a mild reducing agent for the reduction of trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride activated amides providing the tertiary amines with high functional group tolerance.
متن کاملReagents for (ir)reversible enzymatic acylations.
Commonly, hydrolase-catalysed reactions are used for kinetic resolutions of alcohols, amines and acids. Only a few applications in total syntheses have been described. Most of these examples are for the synthesis of amides and peptides. Here, the synthesis of all the different types of activated acids that can be applied in hydrolase-catalysed acylations is described. The application of these a...

• draw the mechanism of ester hydrolysis under acidic and basic reaction conditions; • account for the irreversibility of the hydrolysis reaction under basic conditions; • form new esters by baseor acid-catalysed transesterification mechanisms; • draw the mechanism for cleaving tert-butyl esters and understand why the mechanism is different from that for methyl esters; • understand why protonat...
متن کاملChemoselective reductive alkynylation of tertiary amides by Ir and Cu(i) bis-metal sequential catalysis.
We report herein a convenient and versatile method for the direct reductive alkynylation of tertiary amides to give propargylic amines through sequential Ir-catalysed hydrosilylation-Cu(i)-catalysed alkynylation. The reactions proceed chemoselectively at the amide group in the presence of several sensitive functional groups including the very reactive aldehyde group on either the amide or the a...
