The core structure of the HIV protease inhibitors DMP 323 and DMP 450 has been prepared by catalytic carbonylation of diamine intermediates from the original syntheses. Yields of the ureas from the catalytic reaction are comparable to those previously reported for reaction of the substrates with stoichiometric CDI. Intermolecular urea formation in related acyclic systems was demonstrated by catalytic carbonylation of O-protected phenylalaninol derivatives. W(CO)6-catalyzed carbonylation has been successfully applied to the preparation of analogs of DMP 323 and DMP 450 and to the carbonylation of amino alcohols to selectively form hydroxyl ureas. vii CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Substituted ureas are interesting compounds because of the broad range of their applications. They have found use in a variety of capacities, for example, as antioxidants in gasoline and have been known to exhibit useful biological activity. Ureas are structural components of drug candidates such as HIV protease inhibitors,1,2 CCK-B receptor antagonists,3,4 and endothelin antagonists.5 In addition, they have found widespread usage as agricultural chemicals, dyes, and intermediates en route to carbamates; and as additives to petroleum compounds and polymers.6 The classical synthetic methodology used to synthesize substituted ureas from amines involves phosgene. Phosgene is useful for the carbonylation of primary and secondary amines (Scheme 1.1). The major drawback of phosgene is that it is a highly toxic and corrosive gas. Because of its toxic nature, it requires special handling. This has discouraged its use in laboratory settings. O O RR'NH O RR'NH Cl Cl -HCl Cl NRR' -HCl R'RN NRR' 1 where R' = H, alkyl, aryl Scheme 1.1 Phosgene production7 and use on an industrial scale raise serious environmental risks and problems connected with the use and storage of large amounts of chlorine, and the transportation and storage of a highly toxic and volatile reagent. Other safer derivatives such as 1,1-carbonylimidazole, triphosgene, and a variety of other reagents 1 2 have been used in the carbonylation of amines to form substituted ureas, and are more common in the laboratory setting. Diphosgene (ClCO2CCl3) behaves in the same manner as phosgene. However, diphosgene is in a liquid state at ambient temperature and pressure, while phosgene is in a gaseous state. Thus, it is much safer and more convenient to transport, store, and use diphosgene. Unfortunately, it decomposes to phosgene and chloroform, and is as toxic and corrosive as its phosgene counterpart. The use of isocyanates (2) is undesirable because of their toxic nature and the need to synthesize them from phosgene (Scheme 1.2). In addition, this method can be used in conversion of primary amines to symmetrical and unsymmetrical ureas. O O O RNH R'NH2 R'N C O 2 Cl Cl -HCl Cl NHR' -HCl HN NH 1 2 R' R where R', R = H, alkyl, aryl Scheme 1.2 Triphosgene [bis(trichloromethyl)carbonate, 3], a crystalline solid, is deemed a safe and stable replacement for phosgene and can be handled without special precautions. It is prepared by exhaustive photochlorination of dimethyl carbonate8 (Eq.1-1). O O Cl2,hv H CO OCH 3 3 CCl4 Cl3CO OCCl3 (1-1) 3 where R' = H, alkyl, aryl An activating nucleophile such as triethylamine, pyridine, or dimethylformamide is needed to activate triphosgene. These liberate three molecules of phosgene in situ on reaction with triphosgene. Triphosgene is useful for a variety of conversions, including 3 the carbonylation of amines to ureas. By no means is triphosgene a perfect reagent. It is expensive; and long-term storage or presence of impurities may lead it to form phosgene. The crystalline solid 1,1-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI, 4) has also been used as an alternative to phosgene. Its commercial availability and ease of handling make CDI a desirable alternative to phosgene. An example of CDI as a carbonylation agent is the synthesis of N, N’-substituted ureas such as the HIV protease inhibitors DMP 323 and DMP 450.1,2 The mechanism of carbonylation using CDI involves the stepwise displacement of imidazole by the attacking amine, to form the corresponding urea. It has been successfully used for the carbonylation of primary amines (Scheme 1.3).

  • Reaxysfiletm on STN
    1 ReaxysFile TM on STN: Reactions 2 ReaxysFile on STN August 2012 ReaxysFile TM on STN: Reactions Introduction Chemical reactions such as combustion in the fire, fermentation and the reduction of ores to metals are known since ancient times. Initial theories of transformation of materials were developed by Greek philosophers, such as the Four-Element Theory stating that any substance is composed of the four basic elements – fire, water, air and earth. In the Middle Ages, chemical transformations were studied by Alchemists. They attempted, in particular, to convert lead into gold. Regarding the organic chemistry, it was long believed that compounds obtained from living organisms were too complex to be obtained synthetically. According to the concept of “vitalism”, organic matter was endowed with a "vital force" and distinguished from inorganic materials. This separation ended by the synthesis of urea from inorganic precursors in 1828. The production of chemical substances that do not normally occur in nature has long been tried, with the devel- opment of the lead chamber process in 1746 and the Leblanc process, chemical reactions became implemented into the industry. Nowadays, the chemical and pharmaceutical industry represents an important economic acti - vity. To protect developed products and evaluate the freedom-to-operate, reactions from patents became more and more important over the last years. ReaxysFile includes detailed information on reactions associated with a substance from journals and patents.

Maes[a]* Abstract: 4-Propylcatechol carbonate is a shelf-stable, renewable C1 reactant. It is easily prepared from renewable 4-propylcatechol (derived from wood) and dimethyl carbonate (derived from CO2) using a reactive distillation system. In this work the carbonate reactant has been used for the two-step synthesis of carbamates under mild reaction conditions. In the first step, 4-propylcatechol carbonate is reacted with an alcohol . at 50-80 °C using a Lewis acid catalyst (e.g. Zn(OAc)2 2H2O). With liquid alcohols no solvent and with solid alcohols 2-methyltetrahydrofuran was used as solvent. In the second step, the alkyl 2-hydroxy-propylphenyl carbonates intermediates obtained are reacted with amines at room temperature in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, forming the target carbamates and by-product 4-propylcatechol, which can be recycled into carbonate reactant.

  • Chapter 18 Amines in Order for a Drug to Be Effective Orally, It Generally
    Chapter 18 Amines In order for a drug to be effective orally, it generally has to be reasonable soluble in water so that it can be transported through the blood. Since amines are weak bases, they are often converted to salts with some acid and therefore may oral drugs have amine salts as part of their structure. One reason for their presence is that they confer some water solubility to the drug. The three-dimensional models show the shapes of amine molecules; notice the lone pair of electrons on nitrogen is not shown but affects the geometry about the nitrogen Primary, secondary and tertiary amines have 1, 2 or 3 alkyl groups attached to nitrogen. In these cases the alkyl group is the methyl In the IUPAC system, STEP 1 Name the longest carbon chain bonded to the N atoms as alkanamines by replacing e of the alkane name with amine.

    www.megazyme.com UREA/AMMONIA (Rapid) ASSAY PROCEDURE K-URAMR 04/20 (For the rapid assay of urea and ammonia in all samples, including grape juice and wine) (*50 Assays of each per Kit) * The number of tests per kit can be doubled if all volumes are halved © Megazyme 2020 INTRODUCTION: Urea and ammonia are widely occurring natural compounds. As urea is the most abundant organic solute in urine, and ammonia is produced as a consequence of microbial protein catabolism, these analytes serve as reliable quality indicators for food products such as fruit juice, milk, cheese, meat and seafood. Ammonium carbonate is used as a leaven in baked goods such as quick breads, cookies and muffins. Unlike some other kits, this kit benefits from the use of a glutamate dehydrogenase that is not inhibited by tannins found in, for example, grape juice and wine. In the wine industry, ammonia determination is important in the calculation of yeast available nitrogen (YAN). YAN is comprised of three highly variable components, free ammonium ions, primary amino nitrogen (from free amino acids) and the contribution from the sidechain of L-arginine.1 For the most accurate determination of YAN, all three components should be quantified, and this is possible using Megazyme’s L-Arginine/Urea/Ammonia Kit (K-LARGE) and NOPA Kit (K-PANOPA). Urea determination can be important in preventing the formation of the known carcinogen ethyl carbamate (EC) in finished wine. PRINCIPLE: Urea is hydrolysed to ammonia (NH3) and carbon dioxide (CO2) by the enzyme urease (1). (urease) (1) Urea + H2O 2NH3 + CO2 In the presence of glutamate dehydrogenase (GlDH) and reduced nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), ammonia (as + ammonium ions; NH4 ) reacts with 2-oxoglutarate to form L-glutamic acid and NADP+ (2).

  • In This Handout, All of Our Functional Groups Are Presented As Condensed Line Formulas, 2D and 3D Formulas and with Nomenclature Prefixes and Suffixes (If Present)
    In this handout, all of our functional groups are presented as condensed line formulas, 2D and 3D formulas and with nomenclature prefixes and suffixes (if present). Organic names are built on a foundation of alkanes, alkenes and alkynes. Those examples are presented first and you need to know those rules. The strategies can be found in Chapter 4 of our textbook (alkanes: pages 93-98, cycloalkanes 102-104, alkenes: pages 104-110, alkynes: pages 112-113 and combinations of all of them 113-115). After introducing examples of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and combinations of them, the functional groups are presented in order of priority. A few nomenclature examples are provided for each of the functional groups. Examples of the various functional groups are presented on pages 115-135 in the textbook. Two overview pages are on pages 136-137. Some functional groups have a suffix name when they are the highest priority functional group and a prefix name when they are not the highest priority group, and these are added to the skeletal names with identifying numbers and stereochemistry terms (E and Z for alkenes, R and S for chiral centers and cis and trans for rings). Several low priority functional groups only have a prefix name. A few additional special patterns are shown on pages 98-102. The only way to learn this topic is practice (over and over). The best practice approach is to actually write out the names (on an extra piece of paper or on a white board, and then do it again). The same functional groups are used throughout the entire course.
