An Effective Procedure to Promote Aza–Prins Cyclization Reactions Employing a Combination of Ferric Chloride and an Imidazolium Salt in Benzotrifluoride
摘要:
Aza-Prins cyclization reactions of N-tosyl-3-butenylamine with p-methoxybenzaldehyde, 1-naphthaldehyde and 2-naphthaldehyde take place efficiently using a combination 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium of ferric chloride and hexafluorophosphate in benzotrifluoride (Felm-BTF procedure). The new methodology, leading to formation of target N-tosyl-4-chloro-2-substituted piperidines, is superior to the one using 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrachloroferrate. The Felm-BTF procedure was also applied to aza-Prins cyclization reactions of other aldehydes. Finally, the effects of imidazolium salts on aza-Prins cyclization reaction promoted by boranetrifluoride-diethyl ether complex, leading to formation of fluorinated piperidines, were explored.
