- Scope and limitations of reductive amination catalyzed by half-sandwich iridium complexes under mild reaction conditions
-
The conversion of aldehydes and ketones to 1° amines could be promoted by half-sandwich iridium complexes using ammonium formate as both the nitrogen and hydride source. To optimize this method for green chemical synthesis, we tested various carbonyl substrates in common polar solvents at physiological temperature (37 °C) and ambient pressure. We found that in methanol, excellent selectivity for the amine over alcohol/amide products could be achieved for a broad assortment of carbonyl-containing compounds. In aqueous media, selective reduction of carbonyls to 1° amines was achieved in the absence of acids. Unfortunately, at Ir catalyst concentrations of 1 mM in water, reductive amination efficiency dropped significantly, which suggest that this catalytic methodology might be not suitable for aqueous applications where very low catalyst concentration is required (e.g., inside living cells).

- 1,3-Diphenyldisiloxane Enables Additive-Free Redox Recycling Reactions and Catalysis with Triphenylphosphine
-
The recently reported chemoselective reduction of phosphine oxides with 1,3-diphenyldisiloxane (DPDS) has opened up the possibility of additive-free phosphine oxide reductions in catalytic systems. Herein we disclose the use of this new reducing agent as an enabler of phosphorus redox recycling in Wittig, Staudinger, and alcohol substitution reactions. DPDS was successfully utilized in ambient-temperature additive-free redox recycling variants of the Wittig olefination, Appel halogenation, and Staudinger reduction. Triphenylphosphine-promoted catalytic recycling reactions were also facilitated by DPDS. Additive-free triphenylphosphine-promoted catalytic Staudinger reductions could even be performed at ambient temperature due to the rapid nature of phosphinimine reduction, for which we characterized kinetic and thermodynamic parameters. These results demonstrate the utility of DPDS as an excellent reducing agent for the development of phosphorus redox recycling reactions.

- Green and convenient protocols for the efficient reduction of nitriles and nitro compounds to corresponding amines with NaBH4 in water catalyzed by magnetically retrievable CuFe2O4 nanoparticles
-
Abstract: In this study, firstly, CuFe2O4 nanoparticles were prepared by a simple operation. The structure of the mentioned nanoparticles was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry, vibrating sample magnetometer and also Brunauer–Emmett–Teller and Barrett–Joyner–Halenda analyses. The prepared magnetically copper ferrite nanocomposite was successfully applied as a simple, cost-effective, practicable, and recoverable catalyst on the green, highly efficient, fast, base-free, and ligand-free reduction of nitriles and also on the affordable and eco-friendly reduction of nitro compounds with the broad substrate scope to the corresponding amines with NaBH4 in water at reflux in high to excellent yields.

- Synthesis of N-Substituted phosphoramidic acid esters as “reverse” fosmidomycin analogues
-
An efficient synthetic pathway to a series of novel “reverse” fosmidomycin analogues has been developed, commencing from substituted benzylamines. In these analogues, the fosmidomycin hydroxamate moiety is reversed and the tetrahedral methylene carbon adjacent to the phosphonate moiety is replaced by a nitrogen atom bearing different benzyl groups. The resulting phosphonate esters were designed as potential antimalarial “pro-drugs”.

- Nano-Fe3O4@SiO2-SO3H: A magnetic, reusable solid-acid catalyst for solvent-free reduction of oximes to amines with the NaBH3CN/ZrCl4 system
-
In this study, the immobilization of sulfonic acid on silica-layered magnetite was carried out by the reaction of ClSO3H with silica-layered magnetite. The prepared magnetic nanoparticles of Fe3O4@SiO2-SO3H were then characterized using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, and transmission electron microscopy. The sulfonated nanocomposite exhibited excellent catalytic activity and reusability in the reduction of various aldoximes and ketoximes with NaBH3CN in the presence of ZrCl4. All reactions were carried out under solvent-free conditions (r.t. or 75–80°C) within 3–70 min to afford amines in high to excellent yields.

A β-mesylation of primary sp3 C-H bonds from simple amides with methanesulfonic anhydride (Ms2O) has been established successfully at 80 °C in a Pd(OAc)2 (catalyst)/K2S2O8 (oxidant)/CF3CH2OH (solvent) system. These amide substrates involve N-monosubstituted linear, branch, or cyclic alkanes, and electron-deficient benzyl compounds. The β-mesylated amide products can be converted easily to β-fluoroamides or β-lactams through inter- or intramolecular SN2 processes.

- Stereoelectronic effects in the reaction of aromatic substrates catalysed by: Halomonas elongata transaminase and its mutants
-
A transaminase from Halomonas elongata and four mutants generated by an in silico-based design were recombinantly produced in E. coli, purified and applied to the amination of mono-substituted aromatic carbonyl-derivatives. While benzaldehyde derivatives were excellent substrates, only NO2-acetophenones were transformed into the (S)-amine with a high enantioselectivity. The different behaviour of wild-type and mutated transaminases was assessed by in silico substrate binding mode studies.

- Synthesis and antimycobacterial evaluation of pyrazinamide derivatives with benzylamino substitution
-
A series of 19 new compounds related to pyrazinamide were synthesized, characterized with analytical data and screened for in vitro whole cell antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv, Mycobacterium kansasii and two types of Mycobacterium avium. The series consisted of 3-(benzylamino)-5-cyanopyrazine-2-carboxamides and 3-(benzylamino)pyrazine-2,5-dicarbonitriles with various substituents on the phenyl ring. RP-HPLC method was used to determine the lipophilicity of the prepared compounds. Nine compounds exerted similar or better activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis compared to pyrazinamide (MIC = 6.25-12.5 μg/mL). 3-(Benzylamino)pyrazine-2,5-dicarbonitrile inhibited all of the tested mycobacterial strains with MIC within the range 12.5-25 μg/mL. Although not the most active, 4-NH2 substituted compounds possessed the lowest in vitro cytotoxicity (hepatotoxicity), leading to selectivity index SI = 5.5 and SI >21.

- Efficient transformation of azides to primary amines using the mild and easily accessible CeCl3·;7H2O/NaI system
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) Because of the nitrogen functionality, the azido group plays an important role in the synthesis of amines, and numerous reduction methods of azides to primary amines are reported. Recent reports have highlighted the capability of NaI as a useful reagent for this transformation when it is used in combination with a Lewis acid promoter. However, these methods often suffer from harsh reaction conditions; for this reason, the development of a simple and efficient protocol using NaI in presence of inexpensive and readily available cerium salts Lewis acids would extend the scope of this organic transformation. In continuation of our interest on the use of the CeCl3·7H2O/NaI system, in this paper we report how azides undergo reduction by NaI in the presence of CeCl 3·7H2O in refluxing acetonitrile under neutral conditions to produce the corresponding primary amines. The rate and yield of the reaction are considerably improved by employing this microwave-assisted procedure, and this may be of value for the preparation of densely functionalized molecules having biological and pharmaceutical activities.
