- Nitrosothiosulphate Ion (S2O3NO-) as a Nitrosating Species
-
Analysis of rate data obtained for the nitrosation of N-methylaniline in the presence of thiosulphate ion indicates that the nitrosothiosulphate ion is formed and that it acts as a nitrosating species.The bimolecular rate constant for reaction in water at 25 deg C is evaluated as 1.2E4 l mol-1 s-1 from the variation of the observed rate constant with and also as 1.2E4 l mol-1 s-1 from the variation of the observed rate constant with .Results are also reported, for comparison purposes, for the corresponding reactions of nitrosyl bromide and nitrosyl thiocyanate.Nitrosyl bromide (in its reaction with N-methylaniline) is more reactive than the nitrosothiosulphate ion by a factor of ca. 4E-5, and nitrosyl thocyanate is more reactive than the nitrosothiosulphate ion by a factor of ca.1.5E-4.There is also kinetic evidence of nitrosation by the nitrosothiosulphate ion of methanol, hydrazine, and a thiol.The decomposition of S2O3NO(-) follows the rate law -d/dt=k1+k22.This is interpreted in terms of two concurrent reaction pathways, the first involving the formation of the radical anion S2O3-. in a rate-limiting homolysis (followed by rapid dimerisation) and the second a bimolecular reaction of two S2O3NO(-) ions homolysis (followed by rapid dimrisation) and the second a bimolecular reaction of two S2O3NO(-) ions with concurrent S-N bond fission and S-S bond formation yielding the tetrathionate ion S4O6(2-).

- Kinetic Studies on the Formation of N-Nitroso Compounds IX. Nitrosyl Acetate as a Nitrosating Agent
-
A study of the nitrosation of N-methylaniline and piperazine by nitrous acid in acetate buffer supports a mechanism covering both reactions, whose effective pathway depends on the relationship between the concentrations of nitrite ion, acetate ion, and nitrosatable substrate.In the case of N-methylaniline the only nitrosating agent is nitrosyl acetate, whereas in the nitrosation of piperazine the nitrous acidium ion and dinitrogen trioxide are also involved.The results obtained seem to show that nitrosation by nitrosyl acetate is diffusion controlled.On this assumpti on, the equilibrium constant of the reaction AcOH + HNO2 AcONO + H2O has been estimated from kinetic measurements as approximately 1.4*E-8 M-1.This means that the concentration of nitrosyl acetate in the medium must be extremely small, which explains the virtual impossibility of detecting it in aqueous solution except by kinetic methods. - (Keywords: Acetate buffer; Kinetics of nitrosation; Nitroso compounds; Nitrosyl acetate)

- One-Pot Tandem ortho-Naphthoquinone-Catalyzed Aerobic Nitrosation of N-Alkylanilines and Rh(III)-Catalyzed C-H Functionalization Sequence to Indole and Aniline Derivatives
-
The nitroso group served as a traceless directing group for the C-H functionalization of N-alkylanilines, ultimately removed after functioning either as an internal oxidant or under subsequent reducing conditions. The unique ability of o-NQ catalysts to aerobically oxidize the N-alkylanilines without using solvents and stoichiometric amounts of oxidants has rendered the new opportunity to develop the telescoped catalyst systems without a need for directly handling the hazardous N-nitroso compounds.

- Three-Component Couplings among Heteroarenes, Difluorocyclopropenes, and Water via C-H Activation
-
Three-component couplings have been realized for efficiently constructing various nitrogen-containing skeletons via C-H activation, where difluorocyclopropenes have been first identified as coupling partners. Many substrates including sp2 and sp3 C-H substrates were well tolerated, furnishing the corresponding products in good yields. Furthermore, a catalyst-dependent reaction was also developed, enabling divergent construction of two different frameworks. The application value of these reactions was demonstrated in gram-scale experiments with as little as 1 mol % catalyst.

- Rhodium-catalyzed tandem acylmethylation/annulation ofN-nitrosoanilines with sulfoxonium ylides for the synthesis of substituted indazoleN-oxides
-
An atom-economical protocol for synthesizing indazoleN-oxides from readily availableN-nitrosoanilines and sulfoxonium ylides through the rhodium(iii)-catalyzed C-H activation and cyclization reaction is described here. This protocol employs nitroso as a traceless directing group. The transformation features powerful reactivity, tolerates various functional groups, and proceeds with moderate to good yields under an ambient atmosphere, providing a straightforward approach to access structurally diverse and valuable indazoleN-oxide derivatives. Importantly, this new annulation process represents a hitherto unobserved reactivity pattern for theN-nitroso group.

- Substrate promiscuity of ortho-naphthoquinone catalyst: Catalytic aerobic amine oxidation protocols to deaminative cross-coupling and n-nitrosation
-
ortho-Naphthoquinone-based organocatalysts have been identified as versatile aerobic oxidation catalysts. Primary amines were readily cross-coupled with primary nitroalkanes via deaminative pathway to give nitroalkene derivatives in good to excellent yields. Secondary and tertiary amines were inert to ortho-naphthoquinone catalysts; however, secondary nitroalkanes were readily converted by ortho-naphthoquinone catalysts to the corresponding nitrite species that in situ oxidized the amines to the corresponding N-nitroso compounds. Without using harsh oxidants in a stoichiometric amount, the present catalytic aerobic oxidation protocol utilizes the substrate promiscuity feature to provide a facile access to amine oxidation products under mild reaction conditions.

Rh-catalyzed reactions of N-alkyl anilines with internal alkynes at room temperature have been developed using an in situ generated N-nitroso group as a transient oxidizing directing group. Due to mild reaction conditions, this method enabled synthesis of a broad range of N-alkyl indoles, including even two indole-based medicinal compounds. Our work disclosed the feasibility of the transient oxidizing directing group strategy in C-H functionalization reactions, which possesses the potential to enhance overall step-economy and impart new reactivity patterns to substrates.

-
In this paper, a regioselective, efficient and convenient synthesis of 2-aminobenzophenones through acylation of anilines with α-oxocarboxylic acids assisted by tert-butyl nitrite is presented. Interestingly, tert-butyl nitrite acts as not only an efficient and mild nitrosation reagent, but also a sustainable oxidant required in the Pd(ii)-catalyzed decarboxylative acylation. Meanwhile, the NO unit turned out to be an easily introduced and readily removable directing group for the regioselective acylation.

We present a novel, efficient, and regioselective method for the rhodium-catalyzed direct C-H ortho-halogenation of anilines that involves a removable N-nitroso directing group. This method featured mild reaction conditions, wide substrate scope, good functional group tolerance and satisfactory yields. To maintain the high ortho-regioselectivity and conversion, increasing the steric hindrance of the solvent was critical. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that C-H activation may be involved in the rate-determining step.

The development of transition metal-catalyzed oxidative C-H/C-H cross-coupling between two (hetero)arenes to forge aryl-heteroaryl motifs under mild conditions is an appealing yet challenging task. Herein, we disclose a rhodium-catalyzed oxidative C-H/C-H cross-coupling reaction of an N-nitrosoaniline with a heteroarene under mild conditions. The judicious choice of the N-nitroso group as a directing group enables heightened reactivity. The coupled products could be transformed expediently to (2-aminophenyl)heteroaryl skeletons.

A highly selective sp3 C-N cleavage of tertiary anilines was achieved using the TBN/TEMPO catalyst system. When N,N-diaklylanilines (alkyl, benzyl) were employed, the N-CH3 bond was selectively cleaved via radical C-H activation. Moreover, when the allyl group was installed, totally reverse selectivity was observed. It is worth noting that the solvent effect is also crucial to obtain high reaction efficiency and selectivity.

Synthesis of various N-nitroso compounds from secondary amines is reported using tert-butyl nitrite (TBN) under solvent free conditions. Broad substrate scope, metal and acid free conditions, easy isolation procedure and excellent yields are few important features of this methodology. The acid labile protecting groups such as tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) and tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) as well as sensitive functional groups such as phenols, olefins and alkynes are found to be stable under the standard reaction conditions. Besides N-nitrosation, TBN is also found to be an efficient reagent in few other transformations including aryl hydrazines to aryl azides and primary amides to carboxylic acids under mild conditions.

-
RhIII-catalyzed N-nitroso-directed C-H addition to ethyl 2-oxoacetate allows subsequent construction of indazoles, a privileged heterocycle scaffold in synthetic chemistry, through the exploitation of reactivity between the directing group and installed group. The formal [2+2] cycloaddition/fragmentation reaction pathway identified herein, a unique reactivity pattern hitherto elusive for the N-nitroso group, emphasizes the importance of forward reactivity analysis in the development of useful C-H functionalization-based synthetic tools. The synthetic utility of the protocol is demonstrated with the synthesis of a tri-cyclic-fused ring system. The diversity of covalent linkages available for the nitroso group should enable the extension of the genre of reactivity reported herein to the synthesis of other types of heterocycles.

- Dye-sensitized photooxygenation of the C=N bond. 5. Substituent effects on the cleavage of the C=N bond of C-aryl-N-aryl-N-methylhydrazones
-
The title compounds are cleaved cleanly at the C=N bond by singlet oxygen (1O2, 1Δg) yielding arylaldehydes and N-aryl-N-methylnitrosamines. These reactions take place more rapidly at -78 °C than at room temperature. The effects of substituent variation at both the C-aryl and N-aryl groups were studied using a competitive method. Good correlations of the resulting rate ratios with substituent constants (σ- or σ+) were obtained yielding small to very small ρ values indicative of small to very small changes in charge distribution between the reactant and the rate determining transition state. Electron withdrawing groups on the C-aryl moiety retard reaction somewhat by preferential stabilization of the hydrazone. Electron donors on the other hand slightly stabilize the rate determining transition state. Substituents on the N-aryl group have almost no effect. Inhibition by 3,5-di-tert-butylphenol was not observed showing that free (uncaged) radical intermediates are not involved in the mechanism. We postulate a mechanism in which the initial event is exothermic electron transfer from the hydrazone to 1O2 leading to an ion-radical caged pair. Subsequent covalent bond formation between the hydrazone carbon and an oxygen atom is rate controlling. The transition state for this step also has a lower enthalpy than the starting reactants, but the free energy of activation is dominated by a large negative TΔS? term leading to the negative temperature dependence. Direct formation of a C-O bond in the initial step is not unambiguously ruled out. Subsequent steps lead to C-N cleavage.

- Silica sulfuric acid/NaNO2 as a novel heterogeneous system for the chemoselective N-nitrosation of secondary amines under mild conditions
-
Neat chlorosulfonic acid reacts with silica gel to give silica sulfuric acid in which sulfuric acid is immobilized on the surface of silica gel via a covalent bond. A combination of silica sulfuric acid and sodium nitrite in the presence of wet SiO2 was used as an effective nitrosating agent for the nitrosation of secondary amines to their corresponding nitroso derivatives under mild and heterogeneous conditions in excellent yields.

- Nitrosation products from S-nitrosothiols via preliminary nitric oxide formation
-
High yields of N-nitroso-N-methylaniline were obtained from S-nitrosothiols (RSNO) and N-methylaniline in water at pH 7.4. Reactions were completely inhibited by the presence of EDTA and also when oxygen was removed from the solutions. Lower yields of 4-nitrosophenol were obtained from phenol under similar conditions and there was strong evidence of the rapid formation of a nitroso product (absorbance maximum at 390 nm) from uric acid which decomposed more slowly under the reaction conditions and could not be isolated. The results are consistent with prior nitric oxide formation, by the well-known Cu2+-catalysed (in which the active reagent is Cu+) decomposition of the S-nitrosothiol, subsequent oxidation of NO yielding NO2, which reacts further with NO to give N2O3, which then effects conventional electrophilic nitrosation in direct competition with its hydrolysis to nitrite. With phenol as the reactant, higher yields of 4-nitrosophenol were only possible when there was a very large excess of phenol over RSNO, probably due to the more effective relative competition of the hydrolysis reaction, given the lower reactivity in nitrosation of phenol compared with N-methylaniline. Nitrosation of uric acid is unknown, but we were able to observe the fairly rapid build-up of the same absorbance at 390 nm, from uric acid and nitrous acid only at around pH 4, which disappeared more slowly. The results suggest that uric acid behaves as do amides generally in that a nitroso compound is formed, which decomposes by an acid-catalysed route.

- Structural features of aliphatic N-nitrosamines of 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes that facilitate N-NO bond cleavage
-
N-Nitrosamines can be considered as potential nitric oxide (NO)/nitrosonium ion (NO+) donors. However, the relation of the structures of N-nitrosamines, in particular of aliphatic N-nitrosamines, to the characteristics of release of NO or NO+ remains unclear. Here we show that aliphatic N-nitrosoamines of 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes can undergo heterolytic N-NO bond cleavage. On the basis of the observation of reduced rotational barriers of the N-NO bonds in solution and nitrogen-pyramidal structures of the N-nitroso group in the solid state, we postulate that N-NO bond cleavage of N-nitrosamines is enhanced by a reduction of the resonance in the N-NO group. Computational studies suggest that these structural features of the N-nitrosamines of 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane are derived from angle strain imposed on the CNC angles.

- Reaction of secondary and tertiary amines with nitric oxide in the presence of oxygen
-
In order to clarify the role of oxygen in the reaction of amines with nitric oxide, secondary amines were allowed to react with nitric oxide in the presence of oxygen. Although N-nitrosamines were obtained as the main products in every case, the yields depended on the substituents and reaction solvents. Detailed investigation revealed that the reaction proceeded by at least two pathways: one involving oxygen as a catalyst, and the other consuming the stoichiometric amount of oxygen. Both paths afforded the same nitroso adducts. It was suggested that a third path, a catalytic process via Drago's salts was also possible. The same reaction was applied to a tertiary amine, and it was found that the oxygen was consumed stoichiometrically in this case.

- Nitrosation of Amines in Nonaqueous Solvents. 3. Direct Observation of the Intermediate in Cyclohexane
-
The reactions of N-methylaniline (MeAn) with 2,2-dichloroethylnitrite (DCEN) and 2,2,2-trichloroethylnitrite (TCEN) in cyclohexane, and N-methylmethoxyamine (MMA) with TCEN in the same solvent, all gave the expected N-nitrosamines. Spectrophotometric monitoring of the MeAn/DCEN and MMA/TCEN reactions showed accumulation of the reaction intermediate. These are the first nitrosations of amines by alkyl nitrites in which observation of the intermediate has been possible; this is attributed to the low basicity of these amines (a) having effectively eliminated the possibility of the intermediate decomposing by base catalysis and (b) having decreased the rate of spontaneous decomposition of the intermediate more than the rate of its formation. Because of the scant capacity of cyclohexane to stabilize charge, it is assumed that both the formation and decomposition of the intermediate occur via concerted mechanisms with four-center transition states: formation through nucleophilic attack by the amine on the nitroso group accompanied by transfer of the amine proton to this group, decomposition through simultaneous cleavage of the N-O bond, and protonation of the alkoxide leaving group.

- Stability and nitrosation efficiency of substituted N-methyl-N-nitrosobenzenesulfonamides
-
A series of substituted N-methyl-N-nitrosobenzenesulfonamides [2,4,6-(CH3)3, 4-CH3O, 4-CH3 4-Cl and 4-NO2] were synthesized. All of them transfer their nitroso group to N-methylaniline in a quantitative manner, the more reactive being those substituted with electron-withdrawing groups, thus resembling some of the known alkyl nitrites. Studies of their acid denitrosation and base-catalysed hydrolysis demonstrated that the nitrosobenzenesulfonamides are fairly stable in aqueous media between pH 2 and 11. Their relative stability in aqueous media together with their ability to transfer the nitroso group to nucleophiles suggest their use as excellent alternatives to alkyl nitrites in both neutral and basic media.

- Kinetics and mechanism of the nitrosation of 2-mercaptopyridine [pyridine-2(1H)-thione]
-
2-Mercaptopyridine (MP) reacts rapidly with nitrous acid in mildly acid aqueous solution (via the thione tautomer) to give an unstable 5-nitroso ion (SNO+) in a reversible process with an equilibrium constant (KN) of ca. 1 × 105 dm6 mol-2. SNO+ is readily detected by two peaks in the UV spectrum at 295 and 240 nm with extinction coefficients 9600 and 9300 dm3 mol-1 cm-1 respectively. MP is regenerated when the solution is made alkaline. Kinetic measurements made on the nitrosation reaction give a value of 8200 dm6 mol-2 s-1 for the third order rate constant k3 (defined by rate = k3 [MP] [HNO2] [H+]), which is close to that believed to be the diffusion-controlled limit for attack by NO+ (or H2NO2+). As expected there is marked catalysis by Cl- and Br-, and analysis of the kinetic results obtained from variation of measured rate constants with [halide ion] gave values of 3.5 × 109 and 3.7 × 109 dm3 mol-1 s-1 respectively for the bimolecular rate constants for NOCl and NOBr reactions with MP, again values close to the diffusion limit. The same experimental results also yielded values of 30 and 2400 dm3 mol-1 s-1 for the second order rate constants, for the reverse process of Cl- and Br- reaction with SNO+. Values for KN of 1.3 × 105 and 7.9 × 104 dm6 mol-2 were obtained from the halide catalysed reactions. In acid solution SNO+ decomposed to the disulfide (2,2′-dipyridyl disulflde) and NO (measured with a NO-electrode). Quenching of SNO+ at pH 7.4 gave UV spectroscopic evidence for the neutral deprotonated form (SNO) of SNO+ and there was a transformation to give mainly MP together with some disulfide. There was clear evidence that SNO+ (and maybe SNO) can act as an efficient nitrosating species: addition of the thiol N-acetylcysteine (at pH 6.15) resulted in the almost instantaneous decomposition of SNO. Addition of N-methylaniline (NMA) to an acidified solution of SNO+ resulted in quantitative N-methyl-N-nitrosoaniline formation and kinetic measurements of the nitrosation of NMA in the presence of MP showed marked catalysis at low [MP], which disappeared at higher [MP]. These results are quantitatively consistent with nitrosation via SNO+: catalysis disappears at higher [MP] when the nitrous acid is virtually completely converted to SNO+. A value of 1.7 × 105 dm3 mol-1 s-1 was obtained for the bimolecular rate constant for reaction of SNO+ with the free base form of NMA. MP is thus an excellent catalyst for electrophilic nitrosation. Under somewhat different conditions SNO+ can then act as a source of HNO2/NO2-, NO or NO+. The chemistry reported in this paper bears many similarities to that involved in the nitrosation of thioureas, and subsequent reactions of the S-nitrosothiouronium ions.

4,N,N-Trimethyl-3-nitrobenzenamine gave reductive denitration products (ca. 28%) upon treatment with n-butyl nitrite in the presence of catalytic amounts of ammonium chloride and water in an unprecedented one-reagent single-pot process. The three isomeric N,N-dimethylnitrobenzenamines showed the same behaviour to a much lesser extent; the ortho isomer was partially (7%) transformed into 1-methylbenzotriazole.

- Reactions of Nitric Oxide with Amines in the Presence of Dioxygen
-
Nitric oxide (NO), a multifaceted bioregulatory agent and an environmental pollutant, can effectively convert aromatic amines to the corresponding triazenes under aerobic conditions, but not under anaerobic conditions.Nucleic acid bases and nucleosides are also determinated via hydrolysis of the diazonium ion products with exposure to aerobic NO solution.A peroxynitrite radical or nitrogen dioxide is suggested to be the ultimate reactive species.

- Transnitrosation by N-aryl-N-nitrosoureas; NO-carrying O-nitrosoisourea
-
Transfer of nitroso groups, so-called transnitrosation, from aromatic N-nitroso compounds such as N-nitrosoureas, N-nitrosamides and N-nitrosamines, to aromatic amines or ureas was observed under non-acidic conditions at room temperature. Sterically hindered 3,3-dibenzyl-1-(4-tolyl)-1-nitrosourea (1a) rapidly nitrosates indoline, N-alkylanilines or 3-methyl-1-(4-tolyl)urea to give their N-nitroso derivatives. In the case of N,N-dimethylanilines, nitrosative demethylation occurs to give N-methyl-N-nitrosanilines. The transnitrosation is accelerated by electron-releasing groups on the nitroso acceptors, N-alkylanilines. The transnitrosation mechanism is considered to be as follows: N-nitrosourea (1) thermally decomposes to nitric oxide and ureidyl radical followed by formation of an O-nitrosoisourea intermediate (10), which acts as an NO-carrying agent and nitrosates anilines or ureas.
