The asymmetric synthesis of new chiral γ-chloro-α,β-diaminocarboxylamide derivatives by highly diastereoselective Mannich-type reactions of N-(diphenylmethylene)glycinamides across chiral α-chloro-N-p-toluenesulfinylaldimines was developed. The resulting (S(S),2S,3S)-γ-chloro-α,β-diaminocarboxylamides were formed with the opposite enantiotopic face selectivity as compared to the (S(S),2R,3R)-γ-...

BACKGROUND Thiazolidinone, has been employed in the preparation of different important drugs required for treatment of inflammations, bacterial infections, and hypertension. Mannich bases have been shown to exhibit diverse biological activities, such as antibacterial, and antifungal activities. Spiroheterocycles including thiazolidine moiety have antimicrobial activity. RESULTS In this study,...

A highly selective and sensitive phenanthroimidazole tagged Mannich base type dizinc(II) fluorescent probe (R-Zn²⁺) has been developed for the pyrophosphate ion (PPi) with a very low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.25 ppm; this also assesses PPi from DNA polymerization chain reaction (PCR).

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 yield...

The proline-catalyzed direct asymmetric Mannich reaction between cyclohexanone, formaldehyde, and various anilines is thermally accelerated. With only 0.5 mol % of catalyst, Mannich products with up to 98% ee have been obtained after a short period of time in reactions performed under microwave irradiation. In situ reduction of the resulting ketones affords N-aryl amino alcohols in up to 86% yi...

Secondary phosphine oxides R2P(O)H are a relatively stable tautomeric form of secondary phosphinous acids R2P–OH that with imine/iminium species, or their donors, compounds P(O)–Csp3–N linkage (the phospha-Mannich reaction). These can be referred to as (α-aminoalkyl)phosphine oxides, (α-phosphinoylalkyl)amines, P(O),N-acetals. Compared P–Csp3–N linkages P,N-acetals, products reactions involving...

In the presence of a Brønsted acid catalyst, both aldehydes and N-Boc-aminals were converted to enecarbamates and N-Boc-iminium salts as activated nucleophiles and electrophiles, respectively, giving unprecedented Mannich adducts. The asymmetric variant of the present Mannich reaction has also been demonstrated with a chiral phosphoric acid catalyst.

The Mannich reaction of 7-aryl-5,6-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines 3, easily accessible by condensation of 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil (1) with Mannich bases 2a – c, gives rise to a mixture of 7-aryl-6-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines 6 and 7 as well as 1,2-bis(7-arylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-6-yl)ethane 13 the ratio of which depends on the reaction conditions and the amine used. 6...
