Oxidative C-C Bond Cleavage of N-Protected Cyclic Amines by HNO3-TFA System
摘要:
Oxidative C-C bond cleavage of N-protected cyclic amines was achieved by using 70% HNO3 in trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) to afford omega-amino acid derivatives in high yields. The C-C bond cleavage reaction smoothly proceeded under aerobic condition with a simple procedure. The use of 70% HNO3 as an oxidant source enabled to conduct the reaction at a higher substrate concentration than that of the previous condition using NaNO2 in TFA. In addition, some omega-amino acids were obtained with improved reaction efficiency under the present reaction conditions.
Oxidative carbon-carbon bond cleavage of N-alkoxycarbonylated cyclic amines was accomplished by NaNO2, in TFA to afford omega-amino carboxylic acid in high yield. Optically active 3-hydroxypiperidine derivatives and 3-pipecolinate were converted to enantiomerically pure (R)-4-amino-3-hydroxybutanoic acid (GABOB) and (S)-2-pyrrolidone-4-carboxylate, respectively.
