Amination trans

The C2-symmetrical chiral amine tran.v-(2/ ,6y )-2,6-bis(benzyloxymethyl)piperidine (1), prepared15 from commercially available (S)-2-(benzyloxymethyl)oxirane, has been used in diastereoselective amide alkylations. Thus, the chiral amine of 76% ee is acylated [anhydride or mixed trimethylacetic acid anhydride, 1.2 equivalents of triethylamine and 0.05 equivalents of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine] and the resulting amide 2 treated with 2.1 equivalents of lithium diisopropylamide at —78 CC to give the enolate. This is then alkylated to give high diastereo-meric ratios (>94 6) of alkylation products 3 in 60-93% yield16.

The Birch reductions of C C double bonds with alkali metals in liquid ammonia or amines obey other rules than do the catalytic hydrogenations (D. Caine, 1976). In these reactions regio- and stereoselectivities are mainly determined by the stabilities of the intermediate carbanions. If one reduces, for example, the a, -unsaturated decalone below with lithium, a dianion is formed, whereof three different conformations (A), (B), and (C) are conceivable. Conformation (A) is the most stable, because repulsion disfavors the cis-decalin system (B) and in (C) the conjugation of the dianion is interrupted. Thus, protonation yields the trans-decalone system (G. Stork, 1964B).

Fig. 8. Rephcation. The amino adenosine X and the pentafluorophenyl ester Y form a hydrogen-bonded dimer XY, prior to reaction between the amine and the activated ester groups (shown in the circle). The reaction product is a <7 -amide conformer cis-Z that isomeri2es to the more stable trans- acnide Z. The rephcative process is cataly2ed by the reaction product Z (also referred to as the template). First, a termolecular complex XYZ is formed from X, Y, and Z.

When additional substituents ate bonded to other ahcycHc carbons, geometric isomers result. Table 2 fists primary (1°), secondary (2°), and tertiary (3°) amine derivatives of cyclohexane and includes CAS Registry Numbers for cis and trans isomers of the 2-, 3-, and 4-methylcyclohexylamines in addition to identification of the isomer mixtures usually sold commercially. For the 1,2- and 1,3-isomers, the racemic mixture of optical isomers is specified ultimate identification by CAS Registry Number is fisted for the (+) and (—) enantiomers of /n t-2-methylcyclohexylamine. The 1,4-isomer has a plane of symmetry and hence no chiral centers and no stereoisomers. The methylcyclohexylamine geometric isomers have different physical properties and are interconvertible by dehydrogenation—hydrogenation through the imine. 

Conditions cited for Rh on alumina hydrogenation of MDA are much less severe, 117 °C and 760 kPA (110 psi) (26). With 550 kPa (80 psi) ammonia partial pressure present ia the hydrogenation of twice-distilled MDA employing 2-propanol solvent at 121°C and 1.3 MPa (190 psi) total pressure, the supported Rh catalyst could be extensively reused (27). Medium pressure (3.9 MPa = 566 psi) and temperature (80°C) hydrogenation usiag iridium yields low trans trans isomer MDCHA (28). Improved selectivity to aUcychc diamine from MDA has been claimed (29) for alumina-supported iridium and rhodium by iatroduciag the tertiary amines l,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane [280-57-9] and quiaucHdine [100-76-5]. 

The polyamide copolymer of dodecanoic acid with methylenedi(cyclohexylamine) (MDCHA, PACM) was sold as continuous filament yam fiber under the tradename QIANA. As late as 1981, over 145,000 t was produced using high percentages, typically 80%, of trans, trans MDCHA isomer. The low melting raffinate coproduct left after t,t isomer separation by fractional crystallisation was phosgenated to produce a Hquid aUphatic diisocyanate marketed by Du Pont as Hylene W. Upon terrnination of their QIANA commitment, Du Pont sold the urethane intermediate product rights to Mobay, who now markets the 20% trans, trans—50% cis, trans—30% cis, cis diisocyanate isomer mixture as Desmodur W. In addition to its use in polyamides and as an isocyanate precursor, methylenedi (cyclohexyl amine) is used directiy as an epoxy curative. The Hquid diamine mixture identified historically as PACM-20 is marketed as AMICURE PACM by Anchor Chemical for performance epoxies. 

Homogeneous and heterogenous catalysts which selectively or partially hydrogenate fatty amines have been developed (50). Selective hydrogenation of cis and trans isomers, and partial hydrogenation of polyunsaturated moieties, such as linoleic and linolenic to oleic, is possible. 

Furylfuramide. a[(5-Nitro-2-furaiiyl)-2-methylene]-2-furaiiacetamide, withdrawn from the market in Japan in 1974 because of mutagenicity, is prepared by condensation of 5-nitro-2-furancarboxaldehyde with 2-furanacetic acid followed by chlorination and amination (30). The isomerization of cis to trans form of fudyfuramide has been shown to occur in the presence of a variety of biological reducing agents (31). 

Retarders were originally arenecarboxylic acids. These acidic materials not only delay the onset of cross-linking but also slow the cross-linking reaction itself. The acidic retarders do not function weU in black-fiUed compounds because of the high pH of furnace blacks. Another type of retarder, A/-nitroso diphenylamine [86-30-6] was used for many years in black-fiUed compounds. This product disappeared when it was recognized that it trans-nitrosated volatile amines to give a several-fold increase in airborne nitrosamines. U.S. production peaked in 1974 at about 1.6 million kg. 

An excess of crotonaldehyde or aUphatic, ahcyhc, and aromatic hydrocarbons and their derivatives is used as a solvent to produce compounds of molecular weights of 1000—5000 (25—28). After removal of unreacted components and solvent, the adduct referred to as polyester is decomposed in acidic media or by pyrolysis (29—36). Proper operation of acidic decomposition can give high yields of pure /n j ,/n7 j -2,4-hexadienoic acid, whereas the pyrolysis gives a mixture of isomers that must be converted to the pure trans,trans form. The thermal decomposition is carried out in the presence of alkaU or amine catalysts. A simultaneous codistillation of the sorbic acid as it forms and the component used as the solvent can simplify the process scheme. The catalyst remains in the reaction batch. Suitable solvents and entraining agents include most inert Hquids that bod at 200—300°C, eg, aUphatic hydrocarbons. When the polyester is spHt thermally at 170—180°C and the sorbic acid is distilled direcdy with the solvent, production and purification can be combined in a single step. The solvent can be reused after removal of the sorbic acid (34). The isomeric mixture can be converted to the thermodynamically more stable trans,trans form in the presence of iodine, alkaU, or sulfuric or hydrochloric acid (37,38). 

Doxepin [1668-19-5] (38), unlike other commercially available tricyclics, has an oxygen atom in the bridge between the two aromatic rings. It is marketed as a cis—trans mixture (1 5) of isomers, both of which are active. This close relative of amitriptyline (33) has both sedative and anxiolytic properties associated with its antidepressant profile. Maprotiline [10262-69-8] (39) and amoxapine [14028-44-5] (40) are pharmacologically, although not chemically, similar to the tricycHc secondary amines. Clomipramine [303-49-1] (41) has similar pharmacological and antidepressant efficacy. However, clomipramine is approved by the U.S. FDA only for the treatment of obsessive—compulsive disorder. Representative brands of tricycHc antidepressants marketed in the United States are Hsted in Table 2. 

In solution-based polymerisation, use of the initiating anionic species allows control over the trans /cis microstmcture of the diene portion of the copolymer. In solution SBR, the alkyUithium catalyst allows the 1,2 content to be changed with certain modifying agents such as ethers or amines. The use of anionic initiators to control the molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, and the microstmcture of the copolymer has been reviewed (15). 

The majority of U(V1) coordination chemistry has been explored with the trans-ddo s.o uranyl cation, UO " 2- The simplest complexes are ammonia adducts, of importance because of the ease of their synthesis and their versatihty as starting materials for other complexes. In addition to ammonia, many of the ligand types mentioned ia the iatroduction have been complexed with U(V1) and usually have coordination numbers of either 6 or 8. As a result of these coordination environments a majority of the complexes have an octahedral or hexagonal bipyramidal coordination environment. Examples iuclude U02X2L (X = hahde, OR, NO3, RCO2, L = NH3, primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, py n = 2-4), U02(N03)2L (L = en, diamiaobenzene n = 1, 2). The use of thiocyanates has lead to the isolation of typically 6 or 8 coordinate neutral and anionic species, ie, [U02(NCS)J j)/H20 (x = 2-5).
