Electrochemical fluorination of (N,N-dialkylamino)alcohols
摘要:
Series of amino alcohols including 2-(N,N-dialkylamino)ethanols, 3-(N,N-dimethylamino)propanol and 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)butanol were subjected to electrochemical fluorination. In the case of 2-(N,N-dialkylamino)ethanols, the F-(2-N, N-dialkylamino) acetyl fluorides were obtained in fair to good yields. Yields of each target compound were strongly dependent on the kind of the dialkylamino group. Cyclic amines having an N-(2-hydroxylethyl) group afforded the corresponding F-[N-(c-alkylamino)-substituted acetyl fluorides]. Their yields were generally better than those of acyclic analogs. Several 2-(N,N-dialkylamino)ethanols and 3-(N,N-dimethylamino)propanol were converted into the corresponding trimethylsilylethers, aminoalkyl methyl carbonates and bis-aminoalkyl carbonate, respectively, and they were subjected to fluorination for a comparison of the yield with that obtained from that of the parent aminoalcohol.
