Using N-Nitrosodichloroacetamides to Conveniently Convert Linear Primary Amines into Alcohols
摘要:
The reported rearrangement of N-nitrosodichloroacetamides provides a practicalmethod for converting primary amines into primary alcohols. The reaction sequence is operationally simple, requires only a single purification, and is compatible with a number of common functional groups. Mechanistic studies of the nitrosylation and rearrangement reactions illustrate the increased utility of dichloroacetamides compared to various other amides for this transformation.

Transition metal-catalyzed oxidativecleavage of carbon-carbon multiple bonds has emerged as a powerful tool in organic synthesis. High-valent oxometals, mostly of Ru, Os, Mn, Mo, W, and Re, were used catalytically as reactive oxygen transfer agents to the multiple bonds. Reported here for the first time are the organocatalytic versions of the oxidativecleavage reactions. Our method involves use of
