Amines reaction with alkyne

The U—C bond length in the metallacyclic unit is unusually long (2.752(11) A), and is susceptible to protonation by alcohols, amines, and terminal alkynes reaction with pyridine leads to the generation of a r/ -pyridyl complex. 

CO. Alkynes will react with carbon monoxide in the presence of a metal carbonyl (e.g. Ni(CO)4) and water to give prop>enoic acids (R-CH = CH-C02H), with alcohols (R OH) to give propenoic esters, RCH CHC02R and with amines (R NH2) to give propenoic amides RCHrCHCONHR. Using alternative catalysts, e.g. Fe(CO)5, alkynes and carbon monoxide will produce cyclopentadienones or hydroquinols. A commercially important variation of this reaction is hydroformyiation (the 0x0 reaction ). 

General Reaction Chemistry of Sulfonic Acids. Sulfonic acids may be used to produce sulfonic acid esters, which are derived from epoxides, olefins, alkynes, aHenes, and ketenes, as shown in Figure 1 (10). Sulfonic acids may be converted to sulfonamides via reaction with an amine in the presence of phosphoms oxychloride [10025-87-3] POCl (H)- Because sulfonic acids are generally not converted directiy to sulfonamides, the reaction most likely involves a sulfonyl chloride intermediate. Phosphoms pentachlotide [10026-13-8] and phosphoms pentabromide [7789-69-7] can be used to convert sulfonic acids to the corresponding sulfonyl haUdes (12,13). The conversion may also be accompHshed by continuous electrolysis of thiols or disulfides in the presence of aqueous HCl [7647-01-0] (14) or by direct sulfonation with chlorosulfuric acid. Sulfonyl fluorides are typically prepared by direct sulfonation with fluorosulfutic acid [7789-21-17, or by reaction of the sulfonic acid or sulfonate with fluorosulfutic acid. Halogenation of sulfonic acids, which avoids production of a sulfonyl haUde, can be achieved under oxidative halogenation conditions (15). 

The formation of a bis(guanidinate)-supported titanium imido complex has been achieved in different ways, two of which are illustrated in Scheme 90. The product is an effective catalyst for the hydroamination of alkynes (cf. Section V.B). It also undergoes clean exchange reactions with other aromatic amines to afford new imide complexes such as [Me2NC(NPr )2]2Ti = NC6F5. ... 

Morpholine also gives the allyhc amine in high yield. The reaction is thought to involve a known hydridopaUadium-catalyzed isomerization of alkynes to aUenes followed by reaction of the latter with the hydridopalladium complex to give 1-phenyl-substituted q -allylpalladium complexes. These complexes react with amines affording the allylic amines. Primary amines give the diallylic amines. An intramolecular version has been developed for the synthesis of 2-(2-phenyl)-pyrroUdines and -piperidines [319]. 

Figure 18.11 NHS-PEG4-azide can be used to modify an amine-containing molecule to create an amide derivative terminating in azido groups. The azide modifications then can be used in a click chemistry reaction that forms a triazole linkage with an alkyne-containing molecule. Alternatively, the azide derivative can be used in a Staudinger ligation reaction with a phosphine derivative, which results in an amide bond linkage.

Furthermore, when trimethylsilylacetylene 40 was used as an alkyne in the [IrCl(cod)]2-catalyzed reaction, propargyUc amines (where the alkyne was added to the double bond of imine) were obtained (Equation 10.7) [21, 23]. It is probable that the reaction proceeds through oxidative addition of the terminal C—H bond of alkyne to the Ir complex, followed by the insertion of imine to the resulting Ir-H complex. The crosscoupling reachon of trimethylsilyl (TMS)-acetylene with aldimines took place by [IrCl(cod)]2, leading to the corresponding adducts (Equahon 10.8) [24]. 

The secondary amide can also attack intramolecularly an additional ester function to form a cyclic imide, although only in moderate yields [67], Finally, the palladium-catalysed intramolecular reaction with an alkyne, resulting in a hydro-amination of the latter, will be described later (Fig. 17) [68]. 

Finally, Lecomte and coworkers reported the synthesis of mikto-arm star-shaped aliphatic polyesters by implementing a strategy based on click chemistry (Fig. 36) [162]. Firstly, the polymerization of sCL was initiated by a diol bearing an alkyne function. The chain-ends were protected from any further undesired reaction by the esterification reaction with acetyl chloride. The alkyne was then reacted with 3-azidopropan-l-ol. The hydroxyl function located at the middle of the chain was then used to initiate the ROP of sCL and y-bromo-s-caprolactone. Finally, pendant bromides were reacted successfully with sodium azide and then with N, N-dimethylprop-2-yn-l-amine to obtain pendant amines. Under acidic conditions, pendant amines were protonated and the polymer turned out to exhibit amphiphilic properties.
