Iron(III)-Promoted Aza-Prins-Cyclization: Direct Synthesis of Six-Membered Azacycles
摘要:
A new iron(III) halide-promoted aza-Prins cyclization between gamma,delta-unsaturated tosylamines and aldehydes provides six-membered azacycles in good to excellent yields. The process is based on the consecutive generation of gamma-unsaturated-iminium ion and further nucleophilic attack by the unsaturated carbon-carbon bond. Homoallyl tosylamine leads to trans-2-alkyl-4-halo-1-tosylpiperidine as the major isomer. In addition, the alkyne aza-Prins cyclization between homopropargyl tosylamine and aldehydes gives 2-alkyl-4-halo-1-tosyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridines as the only cyclic products.

A new Prins cyclization process that builds up one carbon−carbon bond, one heteroatom-carbon bond, and one halogen-carbon bond, (in an oxa- and azacycle) relies on an iron catalyst system formed from Fe(acac)3 and trimethylsilyl halide. The method displays a broad substrate scope and is economical, environmentally friendly, and experimentally simple. This catalytic method permits the construction of

A series of trans-2-alkyl-4-halopiperidines and 2-alkyl-4-halo-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridines were prepared by means of an iron(III) catalyzed process. The in vitro antiproliferative activities were examined in the human solid tumor cell lines A2780 (ovarian cancer), SW1573 (non-small cell lung cancer), and WiDr (colon cancer). The results on the biological activity revealed that, in general, the 2-alkyl-4-halo-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine analogs are more potent than the trans-2-alkyl-4-halopiperidine derivatives. A remarkable selectivity of the aza compound 5f for the resistant cell line WiDr was observed. Cell cycle studies revealed a G(2)/M phase arrest for 5f. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
