Deprotection of Oximes, Phenylhydrazones, Semicarbazones and Thiosemicarbazones to the Corresponding Carbonyl Compounds Using Cetyltrimethylammonium Peroxodisulfate as a New and Selective Oxidizing Agent
Cetyltrimethylammonium peroxodisulfate (CTA)2S2O8 was quantitatively prepared and used for the deprotection of oximes, phenylhydrazones, semicarbazones and thiosemicarbazones to the corresponding carbonylcompounds in acetonitrile. Its agent is more efficient and has advantages over similar reagents in terms of the amount of oxidant, short reaction time, simple work up, and high yield.
The N,N′-dioxide−Cu(OTf)2complexes were applied in the asymmetric amination reaction of N-acetyl enamides with dialkyl azodicarboxylate, giving the corresponding products in good yields with high enantioselectivities (up to 91% ee). Precursors of vicinal diamine were readily obtained with excellent diastereoselectivities (>95:5) by NaBH4 reduction.
The enantioselectiveStreckerreaction of N-diphenylphosphinoyl ketoimines has been achieved by use of in situ prepared chiral N,N‘-dioxide catalyst from l-piperidinamide 3f and m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA). Excellent yields (up to 99%) and high enantioselectivities (up to 92% ee) were obtained. In particular, in situ prepared catalyst with readily available chiral material made the procedure
catalyzed transformations of O-acyl oximes to various N-heterocycles are well established. Herein, we report a catalyst free, oxime carboxylate based, three-component condensation method to access mono- and disubstituted pyrimidines. A broad range of substituted pyrimidines were prepared in moderate to excellent yields. Control experiments reveal that in situ generated formamidine is the key intermediate.
We report realization of the first enantioselective Cope-type hydroamination of oximes for asymmetric nitrone synthesis. The ligand promoted asymmetriccyclopropene “hydronitronylation” process employs a Cu-based catalytic system and readily available starting materials, operates under mild conditions and displays broad scope and exceptionally high enantio- and diastereocontrol.
