- A convenient and highly enantioselective synthesis of (S)-2-pipecolic acid: an efficient access to caine anesthetics
-
A novel and enantioselective synthesis of (S)-2-pipecolic acid (5) has been achieved from Oppolzer’s sultam (1) and ethyl N-(diphenylmethylene)glycinate (2) as readily available starting materials. The highly stereoselective alkylation of chiral glycine intermediate (3) with 1,4-dibromobutane afforded the key backbone of (S)-2-pipecolic acid (5) in one-step that was utilized into the preparation of the local anesthetics mepivacaine, ropivacaine and bupivacaine.

- Synthesis of Mepivacaine and Its Analogues by a Continuous-Flow Tandem Hydrogenation/Reductive Amination Strategy
-
Herein we report a convenient, fast, and high-yielding method for the generation of the racemic amide anaesthetics mepivacaine, ropivacaine, and bupivacaine. Coupling of α-picolinic acid and 2,6-xylidine under sealed-vessel microwave conditions generates the intermediate amide after a reaction time of only 5 min at 150 °C. Subsequent reaction in a continuous-flow high-pressure hydrogenator (H-Cube ProTM) in the presence of the respective aldehyde directly converts the intermediate to the final amide anaesthetics in a continuous, integrated, multi-step ring-hydrogenation/reductive amination protocol. Merits and limitations of the protocol are discussed.

- Enantioselective total syntheses of ropivacaine and its analogues
-
An alternative asymmetric synthesis of ropivacaine and analogues employing the 'cation pool' strategy and host/guest supramolecular co-catalysis approach is presented. In this study, chiral auxiliaries, several soft nucleophiles as well as one-pot conditions for anodic oxidation, followed by nucleophilic addition, have been applied.

- Radical fixation of functionalized carbon resources: α-sp 3C - H carbamoylation of tertiary amines with aryl isocyanates
-
A new carbamoylation of tertiary amines is reported. This rare C - H transformation features the direct generation of α-aminoalkyl radicals from tertiary amines, followed by the addition of the resultant nucleophilic radicals to isocyanates, enabling unique access to N,N-dialkylated amino acid derivatives. The authors put forward a mechanistic proposal that is based on the isolation of borinamides produced by capturing nitrogen radical intermediates with Et3B. The present transformation provides a novel one-step process for producing mepivacaine, a clinically important local anesthetic, from readily available materials.
