Preparation of Benzolactams by Pd(OAc)2-Catalyzed Direct Aromatic Carbonylation
摘要:
We developed a new method for Pd(II)-catalyzed direct aromatic carbonylation in a phosphine-free catalytic system using Pd(OAc)2 and Cu(OAc)2 in an atmosphere of CO gas containing air. The carbonylation proceeded with ortho-palladation, inducing a remarkable site selectivity to afford a variety of five- or six-membered benzolactams from secondary omega-arylalkylamines, such as N-alkylbenzylamines or N-alkylphenethylamines.

DecarboxylativeMannichreactions with substituted malonic acids half oxyesters as pronucleophiles has been applied to N-alkyl imines. Key to success was the use of an organocatalyst in combination with acid additives to favor the desired pathway. These conditions were also found to be compatible with the in situ generation of the imine, leading to an original multicomponent reaction.

The synthesis of benzylamines with various N-alkyl chains and substituents in the aromatic system as well as their evaluation on Mycobacterium tuberculosis H 37 Ra are described. The most active compounds in this test, N-methyl-3-chlorobenzylamine (19, MIC 10.2 micrograms/mL), N-methyl-3,5-dichlorobenzylamine (93, MIC 10.2 micrograms/mL), and N-butyl-3,5-difluorobenzylamine (103, MIC 6.4 micrograms/mL), also exhibited a marked inhibitory effect on Mycobacterium marinum and Mycobacterium lufu used for the determination of antileprotic properties. The combinations of 93 with aminosalicylic acid, streptomycin, or dapsone exert marked supra-additive effects on M. tuberculosis H 37 Ra.

Rate constants are reported for the reaction of a series of 19 ring-substituted benzaldehydes with propylamine in methanol and in O-d-methanol at different temperatures and of three of them with 2-methoxyethylamine and 2,2-dimethoxyethylamine. The large direct solvent kinetic isotope effects (KSIE) (2.1-2.9), as well as the Delta H* (4.7-7.6 kcal mol(-1)) values vary smoothly with substituent. Delta S* (ca. -45 cal mol(-1) K-1) is almost independent of substituent. These data indicate that there in no change in the rate-limiting step, and since the large KSIE and \Delta S*\ can be related to significant solvation of the leading OH- group at the transition state, they agree with a mechanism involving cu-amino alcohol formation in a fast preequilibrium followed by rate-limiting OH- detachment yielding iminium ions. When corrected for parallel hemiacetal formation, the second-order rate constants are accounted for by the Young-Jencks equation with p(n) = 0.08 and p(r) = 0.57, this equation allowing a separation of the direct resonance effects from the polar effects of the substituted ring. The very low p(n) value indicates that the polar effects for the rate-limiting OH- detachment are almost compensated by those on the constant of the alpha-amino alcohol-formation preequilibrium. In contrast, the relatively large p(r) coefficient, which means that the overall rate constants depend almost exclusively on resonance, is due to predominance of the direct resonance effects on the preequilibrium. The KSIE and Delta S* data, as well as the beta(nucl) parameters (close to unity) observed when the reacting amine was changed (slopes of the straight lines obtained by plotting the logarithm of the rate constants vs the pK(a) of the ammonium ions) favor a late transition state. In contrast, the low p(r) value for the rate-limiting step (ca. -0.5) shows that the transition state is not iminium ion-like.
