naturally occurring polyamines, the practical synthesis of a series of substituted homo- and hetero-dimers of linear polyamines, spermine and norspermine succinamides and branched polyamines is achieved via 1,4-Michael addition of acrylonitrile and then hydrogenation of the nitrile functional groups to primaryamines. The most charged analogue, a branched polyamine carrying eight positive charges at
Synthesis of polyamino nitriles, en route to acylpolyamine neurotoxins, via the regioselective michael cyanoethylation of unprotected polyamines. Unusual behaviour of 1-(2-aminoethyl)piperazine
The Michael cyanoethylation of 1-(2-aminoethyl)piperazine, 4,4'-methylenebis(cyclohexylamine) and bis(3-aminopropylamine)amine, leading to acrylonitrile free (<100 ppm) polyamino nitriles, as a key step in the synthesis of higher polyamines useful in the synthesis of acylpolyamine neurotoxins, was carried out regioselectively on a multigram scale by careful toning of reaction conditions, without a necessity to protect nitrogen atoms. The higher reactivity of primary amino groups in aliphatic diamines and triamines [as in bis(3-aminopropylamine)amine] was also observed in the cyclic amine, 4,4'-methylenebis(cyclohexylamine), but reversed in 1-(2-aminoethyl)piperazine. The compounds with a dicyanoethylated nitrogen atom were thermally less stable than the monocyanoethylated ones. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
