The reason for this is that this reaction bas not been described in any chemical jour­ nal. It has been mentioned only in the German Patent 671,785 (1939), which states that the reaction has been carried out under anhydrous conditions at low temperature. We round that trichloroacetonit!ile reacts with primary and secondary aliphatic, aromatic and heterocyclic amines at mild conditions without any catalysts, even in dilute solutions at room temperature. There are no side-products of reactions, and the products formed are of high purity and uniformity. The objective of the first phase of this research was to stuqy the preparation and characterization of N-substituted trichloro­ acetamidines by the interaction of several primary amines, on trichloro­ acetonitrile, and to record the infrared spectra of these synthetic products. There are plans to continue this work by extending the scope of reaction to various secondary and heterocyclic amines. Another angle of research will be the physical-organic stuqy of the kinetics of this reaction, and the kinetics of hydrolysis of the new N-substituted trichloroacetamidine~. The other problem in this research was to stuqy the interaction of pyridine dibromide with aniline in acetonitrile solution. 2. HISTORICAL AMIDINES Nomenclature and Classification Amidines are monoacid bases characterized by the formula (I) N-R' R" R-~-N/ (I) 'R,nt where R, R', Rtt, Rttt are hydrogen, al~l or ar,yl radicals and their substitution products. In general, an amidine is named after the acid or amide which may be obtained from it by hydrolysis, according to the system employed in the Chemical Abstracts; thus (II) is acetamidine. (II) The carbon atoms adjacent to the amidine carbon atom are designated in the same manner as those adjacent to a carbonyl group ( 0<, f1', 0 , d ... etc.); thus (III) is named 6?-phenylpropionamidine. c H - CH -CH -C -NH (III) 6 5 2 2 Il 2 NH The nitrogen atoms of the imino and amino groups are not differ- entiated by this system and are referred to as N and N'. If it is difficult to name the compound as a derivative of an acid, the amidine group is referred to as carboxamidine, e.g. (IV) is named stilbene-4,4'-dicarboxamidine. 3. NH ~N-C" .CH =CH (IV) Amidines may be classified into five general types according to the number and distribution of the substituents on the nitrogen atoms. NH I. Unsubstituted R-C~ '~ II. Monosubstituted or III. Symmetrical disubstituted ;NR' NHRt R-e or R-C.,? 'NHR'' ~NR' ~NH IV. Unsymmetrical disubstituted R-C~ 'NR'R'' v. Trisubstituted The preparation of amidines from nitriles and amines Cornell (1) has prepared unsubstituted amidines in low yields by heating the corresponding nitriles with ammonium chloride in liquid ammonia in sealed tubes; he observed that no reaction occurs when only the nitrile and ammonia were used. Bernthsen (2) by a similar procedure prepared many unsubstituted amidines in ver,y low yields. Pinner (3,4) dèscribed the synthesis of unsubstituted amidines from nitriles via the imidic esters; the nitrile was dissolved or suspended in anhydrous alcohol and treated with an excess of dry hydrogen chloride forming an imidic ester hydrochloride (V), which was then caused to react with ammonia 1 as in the following scheme .hNH R-C.:N + R'OH + HCl~R-C~ .HCl (V) OR' ~NH (V) + ~R-C .HCl + R'OH 'NH 2 AYdrogen bromide may be substituted for hydrogen chloride and alcohols other than ethanol may be used (3). The above method is general and mononitriles as well as dinitriles, aliphatic or aromatic, have been used (5). Thus Lamb and White (6) prep­ ared decanebis-(N-cyclohexylcarbonamidine) (VI) which cr,ystallized from acetone-alcohol mixture in needles, m.p. 122°.

R-J1 l +S @ffi3 :~ Monosubstituted amidines may be prepared from the salts of the al~l and aryl primary amines and nitriles under the influence of heat (11,12), but it has the disadvantage that disubstituted amidines are also formed as by-products. Thus, N-phenyl-phenylacetamidine (XVIII) was obtained by heating aniline hydrochloride with ben~l nitrile (XVII) at 220-240° in sealed tube for one day (13,14). Starting with nitriles, via imidic esters, monosubstituted amidines may be produced by replacing the ammonia with primary amines (3,15). 8. Hill and Rabinowitz (17) prepa.red some amidines of the "Halo­ caine" type using the same method, (a) by replacing the methyl groups of Holocaine (XIX), which is regarded as an efficient local anaesthetic !or opthalmic purposes, with alkyl or aralkyl groups, and (b) by replacing one phenetidine group by the amino (XX) or dialkylamino groups (XXI) XIX xx XXI An example is the preparation of the Holocaine itself by treating two molecular equivalents of p-phenetidine (XXII) in dry ether with a sus- pension of the imidic ester hydrochloride in the same solvent; the mixture was allowed to stand for 21 days at room temperature and occasionally

Synthesis which involve mild conditions, avoids multi-step sequence and non-toxic reagents are desirable for generation of large combinatorial libraries of drug molecules. We envisaged that the NCN linkage of the cyanamide as well as the concomitant use of the nucleo-and electrophilic centres of the cyanamide could provide a novel synthetic route towards nitrogen heterocycles.

Hughes Copyright Ó 2011 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim ISBN: 978-3-527-32102-5 j3 1 Amino Acid Biosynthesis Emily J. Parker and Andrew J. Pratt 1.1 Introduction The ribosomal synthesis of proteins utilizes a family of 20 a-amino acids that are universally coded by the translation machinery; in addition, two further a-amino acids, selenocysteine and pyrrolysine, are now believed to be incorporated into proteins via ribosomal synthesis in some organisms. More than 300 other amino acid residues have been identified in proteins, but most are of restricted distribution and produced via post-translational modification of the ubiquitous protein amino acids [1]. The ribosomally encoded a-amino acids described here ultimately derive from a-keto acids by a process corresponding to reductive amination. The most important biosynthetic distinction relates to whether appropriate carbon skeletons are pre-existing in basic metabolism or whether they have to be synthesized de novo and this division underpins the structure of this chapter. There are a small number of a-keto acids ubiquitously found in core metabolism, notably pyruvate (and a related 3-phosphoglycerate derivative from glycolysis), together with two components of the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA), oxaloacetate and a-ketoglutarate (a-KG). These building blocks ultimately provide the carbon skeletons for unbranched a-amino acids of three, four, and five carbons, respectively. a-Amino acids with shorter (glycine) or longer (lysine and pyrrolysine) straight chains are made by alternative pathways depending on the available raw materials.

The stability of haloacetonitriles decreases and the hydrolysis rate increases with increasing pH and number of halogen atoms in the molecule: The monochloroacetonitriles are the most stable and are also less aected by pH-changes, while the trihaloacetonitriles are the least stable and most sensitive to pH changes. The stability of haloacetonitriles also increases by substitution of chlorine atoms with bromine atoms. The hydrolysis rates in dierent buer solutions follow ®rst order kinetics with a minimum hydrolysis rate at intermediate pH. Thus, haloacetonitriles have to be preserved in weakly acid solutions between sampling and analysis. The corresponding haloacetamides are formed during hydrolysis and in basic solutions they can hydrolyze further to give haloacetic acids. Linear free energy relationship can be used for prediction of degradation of haloacetonitriles

Brimble Received: 9 March 2017; Accepted: 7 April 2017; Published: 12 April 2017 Abstract: The application of alkyl and aryl substituted cyanamides in synthetic chemistry has diversified multi-fold in recent years. In this review, we discuss recent advances (since 2012) in the chemistry of cyanamides and detail their application in cycloaddition chemistry, aminocyanation reactions, as well as electrophilic cyanide-transfer agents and their unique radical and coordination chemistry. Keywords: cyanamide; synthesis; aminocyanation; cycloaddition; electrophilic cyanation; radical reaction; coordination chemistry 1. Introduction Cyanamide enjoys a rich chemical history, which can be traced to its unique and chemically promiscuous nitrogen-carbon-nitrogen (NCN) connectivity. The chemistry of the nitrile-substituted amino-group of the ‘cyanamide-moiety’ is dominated by an unusual duality of a nucleophilic sp3-amino nitrogen and an electrophilic nitrile unit. The reported use of unsubstituted cyanamide (NH2CN) and metal cyanamides (MNCN, where M = metal) date back as far as the late 19th century, where the likes of calcium cyanamide (CaNCN) was used as a fertilizer, and later as source of ammonia and nitric acid, which fueled the industrial production of metal cyanamides. In contrast, the reported use of the corresponding substituted organic cyanamides (RNHCN or RR’NCN) gathered pace only in more recent years.

  • Lithium Promoted Mesoporous Manganese Oxide Catalyzed Oxidation of Allyl Ethers
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-08619-x OPEN Lithium promoted mesoporous manganese oxide catalyzed oxidation of allyl ethers Biswanath Dutta1, Ryan Clarke 1, Sumathy Raman2, Timothy D. Shaffer2, Laura Achola1, Partha Nandi2 & Steven L. Suib1,3 Herein we report the first example of the catalytic aerobic partial oxidation of allyl ether to its acrylate ester derivative. Many partial oxidations often need an expensive oxidant such as 1234567890():,; peroxides or other species to drive such reactions. In addition, selective generation of esters using porous catalysts has been elusive. This reaction is catalyzed by a Li ion promoted mesoporous manganese oxide (meso-Mn2O3) under mild conditions with no precious metals, a reusable heterogeneous catalyst, and easy isolation. This process is very attractive for the oxidation of allyl ethers. We report on the catalytic activity, selectivity, and scope of the reaction. In the best cases presented, almost complete conversion of allyl ether with near complete chemo-selectivity towards acrylate ester derivatives is observed. Based on results from controlled experiments, we propose a possible reaction mechanism for the case in which N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) is used in combination with trichloroacetonitrile (CCl3CN). 1 Department of Chemistry, University of Connecticut, U-3060, 55 North Eagleville Road, Storrs, CT 06269, USA. 2 Corporate Strategic Research, ExxonMobil, 1545 US 22 East, Annandale, NJ 08801, USA. 3 Institute of Materials Science, University of Connecticut, U-3060, 55 North

  • Cationic Palladium(II)-Catalyzed Stereoselective Glycosylation with Glycosyl Trichloroacetimidates
    Cationic Palladium(II)-Catalyzed Stereoselective Glycosylation with Glycosyl Trichloroacetimidates Jaemoon Yang, Colleen Cooper-Vanosdell, Enoch A. Mensah, and Hien M. Nguyen* Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Montana State UniVersity, Bozeman, Montana 59717 [email protected] ReceiVed NoVember 20, 2007 The development of a new method for stereoselective glycosylation with glycosyl trichloroacetimidate donors employing cationic palladium(II), Pd(CH3CN)4(BF4)2, is described. This process employs Pd(CH3CN)4(BF4)2 as an efficient activator, providing access to a variety of disaccharides and glyco- peptides. This reaction is highly stereoselective and proceeds under mild conditions with low catalyst loading. Interestingly, this palladium catalysis directs â-glucosylations in the absence of classical neighboring group participation. Introduction anhydrous and low temperature (up to -78 °C) conditions, especially if glycosyl donors and acceptors are incorporated with Since the first paper on Schmidt’s glycosylation method was acid-labile protecting groups. Additionally, high catalyst loading published in 1980,1 trichloroacetimidates have been among the is often required since these Lewis acids are oxophilic. This most widely used glycosyl donors. Their popularity comes from has resulted in the continued development of activating reagents their relative ease of synthesis by base-catalyzed addition of and conditions for the activation of trichloroacetimidates.
