Carboxamides acylation

Another version of the o-aminobenzyl anion synthon is obtained by dilithi-ation of A-f-Boc-protected o-alkylanilines. These intermediates are C-acylated by DMF or A"-methoxy-At-melhyl carboxamides, leading to either 3- or 2,3-disubstituted indoles. In this procedure dehydration is not spontaneous but occurs on brief exposure of the cyelization product to acid[4]. Use of CO as the electrophile generates oxindoles. 

Specialty Isocyanates. Acyl isocyanates, extensively used in synthetic appHcations, caimot be direcdy synthesized from amides and phosgene. Reactions of acid haUdes with cyanates have been suggested. However, the dominant commercial process utilizes the reaction of carboxamides with oxalyl chloride [79-37-8]. CycHc intermediates have been observed in these reactions which generally give a high yield of the desired products (86).

The reaction of the enamines of cyclic ketones with alkyl isocyanates, acyl isocyanates, phenyl isothiocyanates, and acyl isothiocyanates has also been reported 112). The products are the corresponding carboxamides. The products from the isothiocyanates have been utilized as intermediates in the preparation of various heterocyclic compounds 113). 

At low temperature a 1 1 adduct of thioacetic acid and an enamine could be prepared (709). The previously described reaction of aminomethylene ketones with hydrogen peroxide was extended to bisaminomethylene compounds. However, acylated cyclohexenamines led to cyclopentane-carboxamides (770), Trichloromethyl adducts of enamines and the rearranged amine derivatives were described in a further study (777). 

Ester group of l-(ethoxycarbonylmethyl)-7-aryl-5-oxo-1,2,3,5-tetrahydro-pyrido[l,2,3-i/e]quinoxaline-6-carboxamides was hydrolyzed and the 1-carboxymethyl moiety was converted to an aminocarbonylmethyl group with 1-methylpiperazine (01MIP12). Bromo atom of l-(2-bromoacetyl) derivatives was substituted by different amines. An amino group in the side chain attached to the position 1 of 7-aryl-5-oxo-l,2,3,5-tetrahydropyr-ido[l,2,3-i/e]quinoxaline-6-carboxamides was acylated, and terc-butoxycarbonyl protecting group of amino group was eliminated. 

It is proposed that the boric acid reacts with the carboxylic acid to form a mixed anhydride as the actual acylating agent.913 Upon reaction with an amine, this intermediate forms the desired carboxamide and regenerates the catalytically active boric acid. 

This chapter covers not only nuclear and extranuclear quinoxahnecarboxylic acids (and anhydrides) but also the carboxylic esters, acyl halides, carboxamides, carbohydrazides, carbonitriles, carbaldehydes, and (ketonic) acyl derivatives of quinoxaline a few related speceis are also included. To avoid repetition, the interconversions of these quinoxaline derivatives are discussed only at the first opportunity thus the esterification of quinoxalinecarboxylic acids in covered as a reaction of carboxylic acids rather than as a preparative route to carboxylic esters, simply because the section on carboxylic acids precedes that on carboxylic esters. To minimize any confusion, appropriate cross-references have been inserted. 

Other derivatives to obtain P-aminoacids are the corresponding carboxamides. Thus, for the preparation of all enantiomers of as and traws-2-aminocydopentane-and cydohexanecarboxamides, the best results obtained are using this acyl donor and CALB [54]. An unexpected change in enantiopreference accompanied by low enantioselectivity was observed when PSL (ds-cydohexane substrate) or CALA (ds-cyclopentane and cydohexane substrates) replaced CALB (Scheme 7.30). 

The reactivity of the various azolides as well as the order of reactivities within this group can be explained on the basis of the quasi-aromatic character of the azole rc-system the lone electron pairs on the acyl-substituted nitrogens N(l) are part of the cyclic tc-system of the azole units, leading to a partial positive charge on N(l) that interferes with the normal carboxamide resonance and exerts an electron-withdrawing effect on the... 

Reduction of 3-benzyl-8-chloro-4-oxo-4//-pyrido[l,2- ]pyrimidine-2-carboxylate <2004W004/064741> and 2-methyl-4-oxo-4//-pyrido[l,2-tf]pyrimidine-3-carboxylate <2003T4123> with DIBAL-H afforded 2- and 3-formyl derivatives, respectively. Reduction of /V-(4-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-8-[methoxy(methyl)amino]-4-oxo-6,7,8,9-tetra-hydro-4//-pyrido[l,2- ]pyrimidine-2-carboxamide with Zn-dust in aqueous AcOH afforded the 8-methylamino derivative, which was acylated with AcOH in the presence of Hiinig s base, HOBt, and l-(3-dimethylaminopro-pyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide-HCl <2004W004/058756>. 3-(Perhydropyrido[l,2- ]pyrimidin-2-yl)propylamine was obtained by catalytic hydrogenation of 2-(perhydropyrido[l,2- ]pyrimidin-2-yl)propionitrile over a Pt02 catalyst <2003FRP1275647>. 

Although there are few reports of catalysed acylation or sulphonylation reactions of simple amines in which the amides are isolated, the synthesis of carboxamides and... 

Two equivalents of the tertiary amine base are required, and a significant improvement in the diastereoselectivity was observed with TMEDA over DIPEA. Purification and further enrichment of the desired RRR isomer to >98% ee was achieved by crystallization. Oxidative removal of the chiral auxiliary followed by carbodiimide mediated amide formation provides (3-keto carboxamide 14 in good yield. Activation of the benzylic hydroxyl via PPha/DEAD, acylation, or phosphorylation, effects 2-azetidinone ring-closure with inversion of stereochemistry at the C4 position. Unfortunately, final purification could not be effected by crystallization and the side products and or residual reagents could only be removed by careful chromatography on silica. 

The transamidation mechanism starts with the nucleophilic attack by the thiol group of an active-site cysteine residue (the catalyhc triad is composed of Cys-276, His-334, and Asp-358) on the donor substrate y-carboxamide group, leading to loss of an equivalent of ammonia and formahon of a covalent thiolester intermediate. The acyl group of the transient thiolester is transferred to the acceptor amine substrate in the second step [45]. 

Macor has developed what appears to be a quite general method for the acylation (protection) of the indole nitrogen using l,r-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) in the presence of DMAP. Reaction of substituted indoles 98 with CDI presumably occurs to form the imidazolyl amide of indole 99 which upon treatment in situ with either amines, alcohols or thiols affords the desired indole-1-carboxamides, -1-carboxylates, or 1-thiocarboxylates derivatives 100, respectively. 

The reduced basicity of phenothiazine nitrogen requires that even acylation proceed via the anion. The amide (34-2) from the methyl thioether (34-1) can be prepared, for example, by sequential reaction with sodium amide and acetic anhydride. Oxidation of that intermediate with peracid proceeds preferentially on the more electron-rich alkyl thioether to give the sulfone this affords the phenothiazine (34-3) on hydrolysis of the amide. Complex side chains are most conveniently incorporated in a stepwise fashion. The first step in the present sequence involves reaction of (34-3) as its anion with l-bromo-3-chloropropane to give (34-4). The use of that halide with alkylate piperidine-4-carboxamide (34-5) affords the antipsychotic agent metopimazine (34-6) [35].
