New domino radical synthesis of aminoalcohols promoted by TiCl4–Zn/t-BuOOH system: selective hydroxyalkylation of amines in alcohol or in cyclic ether cosolvents
We report a new and fast domino synthesis of aminoalcohols under mild conditions. The free-radical reaction of aliphatic and aromatic amines with alcohol cosolvents is promoted by means of the TiCl4âZn/t-BuOOH system. According to the proposed mechanism, the amine reacts with two molecules of alcohol in an electrophilicânucleophilic cascade process. This procedure, if compared with the TiCl3/t-BuOOH-mediated protocol previously reported, appears to be more selective, of more general applicability and affords the desired products in higher yields. Besides, with the same catalytic system it was possible to promote the reaction of primary arylamines with two molecules of cyclic ether, leading to the formation of a wider range of functionalized aminoalcohols.

We report that an aqueous Ti(III)/t-BuOOH system promotes the efficient domino radical reaction of arylamines with alcohol cosolvents leading to beta-aminoalcohols in good yields, in less than ten minutes at room temperature. The free-radical mechanism according to which the amine reacts with two molecules of the alcohol is discussed. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Programmable amine synthesis is realized through sequential insertion of nitrogen and carbon atoms into boronate C−B bonds. This strategy is enabled by a new nitrenoid reagent, which allows for direct formation of aminoboranes from aryl or alkyl boronates via N-insertion.
