Title: Synthesis of N-Substituted 3-Amino-4-halopyridines: A Sequential Boc-Removal/Reductive Amination Mediated by Brønsted and Lewis Acids. Author: Wilhelmsen CA, Dixon ADC, Chisholm JD, Clark DA. Journal: J Org Chem; 2018 Feb 02; 83(3):1634-1642. PubMed ID: 29308898. Abstract: N-Substituted 3-amino-4-halopyridines are valuable synthetic intermediates, as they readily provide access to imidazopyridines and similar heterocyclic systems. The direct synthesis of N-substituted 3-amino-4-halopyridines is problematic, as reductive aminations and base-promoted alkylations are difficult in these systems. A high yielding deprotection/alkylation protocol mediated by trifluoroacetic acid and trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate is described, providing access to a wide scope of N-substituted 3-amino-4-halopyridines. This protocol furnishes many reaction products in high purity without chromatography. Similar reductive amination conditions were also established for deactivated anilines.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
