The formation of vinylogous amides from primary amines and -dicarbonyl compounds gives rise to hydrolyzable amine derivatives with greatly decreased nucleophilicity of the nitrogen function. Thus these derivatives have found some use as protecting groups in peptide syntheses 617-619). 

The major development in the Knorr pyrrole synthesis has been access to the amine component. For example, use of preformed diethyl aminomalonate with 1,3-diketones affords much higher yields of pyrroles 14. Reaction of 6-dicarbonyl compounds with hydroxylamine 0-sulfonic acid gives pyrroles 15 in one step. Weinreb a-aminoamides have found use in the Knorr pyrrole synthesis of a wide variety of pyrroles 16. °... 

The Gewald aminothiophene synthesis involves the condensation of aldehydes, ketones, or 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds 1 with activated nitriles such as malononitrile or cyanoacetic esters 2 and elemental sulfur in the presence of an amine to afford the corresponding 2-aminothiophene 3. ... 

The Pictet-Spengler reaction is one of the key methods for construction of the isoquinoline skeleton, an important heterocyclic motif found in numerous bioactive natural products. This reaction involves the condensation of a P-arylethyl amine 1 with an aldehyde, ketone, or 1,2-dicarbonyl compound 2 to give the corresponding tetrahydroisoquinoline 3. These reactions are generally catalyzed by protic or Lewis acids, although numerous thermally-mediated examples are found in the literature. Aromatic compounds containing electron-donating substituents are the most reactive substrates for this reaction. 

This sequence is equally applicable to keto esters. Thus, condensation of guanidine with ethyl acetoacetate gives the pyrimidone, 134. Elaboration as above gives the pyrimidine, IJ5 acylation with the sulfonyl chloride (88) followed by hydrolysis yields sulfamerazine (107). Reaction of guanidine with beta dicarbonyl compounds gives the pyrimidine directly. Condensation of the base with acetonyl acetone affords the starting amine for sulfadimidine (108). ... 

In azo couplings with carbonyl compounds, three tautomeric products are possible, compared with only two for phenols and aromatic amines (discussed in Section 12.1). The ketohydrazone 12.75 is most often dominant, but for easily enolizable 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds (X=CO-R and similar structures) the azoenol 12.76 is the major product. The azoketone 12.77 is often postulated as primary product, but has rarely been identified in an unambiguous fashion using modern methods. The CH2 group should be easily detectable in the lH NMR spectrum. 

The synthesis of imidazoles is another reaction where the assistance of microwaves has been intensely investigated. Apart from the first synthesis described since 1995 [40-42], recently a combinatorial synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted and 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted imidazoles has been described on inorganic solid support imder solvent-free conditions [43]. Different aldehydes and 1,2 dicarbonyl compounds 42 (mainly benzil and analogues) were reacted in the presence of ammonium acetate to give the trisubstituted ring 43. When a primary amine was added to the mixture, the tetrasubstituted imidazoles were obtained (Scheme 13). The reaction was done by adsorption of the reagent on a solid support, such as silica gel, alumina, montmorillonite KIO, bentonite or alumina followed by microwave irradiation for 20 min in an open vial (multimode reactor). The authors observed that when a non-acid support was used, addition of acetic acid was necessary to obtain good yields of the products. 

Some advances have been made in the Paal-Knorr synthesis of pyrroles by the condensation of primary amines with 1,4-dicarbonyl species. For instance, a new synthetic route to monosubstituted succinaldehydes allows for the facile preparation of 3-substituted pyrroles <96TL4099>. Additionally, a general method for the synthesis of 1-aminopyiroles has been devised by the condensation of commercially available 2,2,2-trichloroethyl- or 2-(tri-methylsilyl)ethylhydrazine with 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds <96JOCl 180>. A related route to such compounds involves the reaction of a-halohydrazones with p-dicarbonyl compounds <96H(43)1447>. Finally, hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) can be utilized as the amine component in the Paal-Knorr synthesis in the presence of alumina, and this modification has been employed in the synthesis of tm azaprostacyclin analog <96S1336>. 

The reactions [OS 52], [OS 53], [OS 54] and [OS 55] were chosen as test reactions among a wide class of reagents employed for Michael additions. 1,3-Dicarbonyl compounds were chosen because of their relatively high acidity since they enable one to use weak bases instead of strong bases such as sodium efhoxide. The latter is labile to moisture and can react with the Michael acceptor [8]. Diisopropylethyl-amine was chosen as a weak base. 

It is assumed that the overall process is initiated by a Michael addition of the 1,3-dicarbonyl compound onto the ci,(5-uri saturated carbonyl derivative. There follows the formation of either an aminal and an iminium intermediate which is followed by the formation of two N.O-acetals. 

Officially, the history of MCRs dates back to the year 1850, with the introduction of the Strecker reaction (S-3CR) describing the formation of a-aminocyanides from ammonia, carbonyl compounds, and hydrogen cyanide [4]. In 1882, the reaction progressed to the Hantzsch synthesis (H-4CR) of 1,4-dihydropyridines by the reaction of amines, aldehydes, and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds [5], Some 25 years later, in 1917, Robinson achieved the total synthesis of the alkaloid tropinone by using a three-component strategy based on Mannich-type reactions (M-3CR) [6]. In fact, this was the earliest application of MCRs in natural product synthesis [7]. 

Various variants of this process are presented for pyrrole synthesis. For example, reactions of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with P-nitrostyrene followed by treatment with amines give 3-acylpyrroles (Eq. 10.5).7... 

Several interesting reactions have been described for quinolizine-3-diazonium tetrafluoroborate 121. Thus, its treatment with secondary amines gave the corresponding triazenes 122 <2004ZNB380>, while its reaction with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds gave the corresponding hydrazones. In the case of alkyl 4-chloro-3-oxobutanoates, the intermediate hydrazone 123 furnished a pyrazole derivative 124, as shown in Scheme 17 <2002H(57)2091>. 

One of the most common approaches to pyrrole synthesis is the Paal-Knorr reaction, in which 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds are converted to pyrroles by acid-mediated dehydrative cyclization in the presence of a primary amine. The group of Taddei has reported a microwave-assisted variation of the Paal-Knorr procedure, whereby a small array of tetrasubstituted pyrroles was obtained (Scheme 6.181) [342], The pyrroles were effectively synthesized by heating a solution of the appropriate 1,4-dicarbonyl compound in the presence of 5 equivalents of the primary amine in acetic acid at 180 °C for 3 min. The same result was obtained by heating an identical mixture under open-vessel microwave conditions (reflux) for 5 min. Interestingly, the authors were unable to achieve meaningful product yields when attempting to carry out the same transformation by oil-bath heating. 

Strecker aldehyde are generated by rearrangement, decarboxylation and hydrolysis. Thus the Strecker degradation is the oxidative de-amination and de-carboxylation of an a-amino acid in the presence of a dicarbonyl compound. An aldehyde with one fewer carbon atoms than the original amino acid is produced. The other class of product is an a-aminoketone. These are important as they are intermediates in the formation of heterocyclic compounds such as pyrazines, oxazoles and thiazoles, which are important in flavours.

Nicardipine Nicardipine, l,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-methyl-2-[(methyl-phenylmethyl)-amino]ethyl ester 3,5-pirididincarboxylic acid (19.3.7), is synthesized in a manner analogous to the synthesis of nifedipine, the only difference being that in the Hantsch synthesis, two different )3-dicarbonyl compounds are used simultaneously with o-nitrobenzaldehyde. During this, one of these in the enamine form of acetoacetic ester is simultaneously used as an amine component. A heterocycUzation reaction is accomplished by reacting, the methyl ester of 8-aminocrotonic acid with the 2-methyl-2-benzyl-aminoethyl ester of acetoacetic acid [24-27].
