Catalyst‐free Chloroamination Cyclization Cascade with Sodium Hypochlorite: from N‐(Pentenyl)sulfonylamides to 2‐(1‐Chloromethyl)pyrrolidines
摘要:
A mild and catalyst‐free protocol to obtain several 2‐chloromethylpyrrolidines by the use of a commercial solution of sodium hypochlorite is here reported, without the need for a light source. The choice of the solvent revealed to be crucial in the success of the reaction. Mechanistic studies, both experimental and computational, confirmed a radical mechanism, where the deprotonation step, followed by the oxidation of a N‐centered anion to the corresponding radical, allowed 2‐chloromethylpyrrolidines, by a very fast cyclization, to be obtained. Sodium hypochlorite plays the role of both the oxidant and the chlorine source.

The oxidative intramolecular bromo-amination of various N-alkenyl sulfonamides and N-alkenoxyl sulfonamides via umpolung of alkali metal bromides occurred exo-selectively to generate cyclic bromoamides in high yields with good diastereoselectivities. This method provided the desired products without elaborating the stoichiometric amount of corresponding organic waste.

The intramolecular aminohydroxylation of N-alkenylsulfonamides proceeded under heavy metal-free conditions to give substituted prolinol derivatives in high yields. Oxone activated by catalytic Bronsted acid worked well as an electrophilic oxidant for this reaction.
