Unprecedented Catalytic Asymmetric Reduction of N−H Imines
摘要:
Addition of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide to perfluorinated ketones 1a-j affords (E)-N-TMS-ketimines 2a-j that are reduced in situ to afford racemic perfluoromethylated amine hydrochloride salts 3a-j in 54-97% yields. Solvolysis of the N-Si bond in MeOH leads to formation of bench-stable, isolable N-H imine Z/E isomer mixtures along with a methanol adduct. Enantioselective reduction of these three-component mixtures provides the first catalytic asymmetric synthesis of trifluoromethylated amines in 72-95% yields and 75-98% ee.
It′s a cinch! The title reaction with azomethineimines 1 uses an operationally simple procedure, based on the combination of the bromide salt of cinchona alkaloids (3) and KOH. The procedure is reliable and general. Trifluoromethyl‐substituted amines can be accessed by a two‐step deprotection of the product (S)‐2.
Here we have successfully demonstrated the first stereodivergent direct nucleophilic trifluoromethylation of N-sulfinylimines using the potent greenhouse gas “HFC-23, fluoroform” with an organic-superbase or an organometallic-base in high yields and selectivity.

The asymmetricsynthesis of trifluoromethylated tertiary and secondary carbinamines (α,α-dibranched and α-branched amines) was achieved by reaction of alkyl, aryl and allyl organomagnesium or organolithium reagents to trifluoromethyl N-tert-butanesulfinyl hemiaminals, bench-stable analogs of the corresponding ketoimines.

N-tert-butanesulfinamide (S)-1 with trifluoroacetaldehyde hydrate 2a afforded 2-methyl-N-(2,2,2-trifluoroethylidene)propane-2-sulfinamide 3. Without isolation and purification, imine 3 was added to various aryllithium reagents to give highly diastereomerically enriched adducts 5a-g. Acidic methanolysis of 5a-g provided the desired 1-aryl-2,2,2-trifluoroethylamine hydrochloride compounds 6a-g. [reaction: see text]

of (Rs)-N-tert-butanesulfinyl α-trifluoromethyl ketimines formed in situ from the corresponding α-trifluoromethyl ketones and N-tert-butanesulfinamide has been achieved, and either diastereomer of N-tert-butanesulfinyl α-trifluoromethyl amines was obtained in good yields with excellent diastereoselectivities (up to 99:1 dr) using NaBH4 and L-Selectride as the reductants, respectively.
