Primary amines substitution

Aldehydes 62 were reacted vdth an excess of either n-butyllilhiurn or allylmagne-sium chloride 63 to give the metal alkoxides 64, which were quenched with carboxylic acid functionalized resin. This resin also served a dual role in quenching the excess organometallic reactant The excess carbonyl compound was quenched with a primary amine substituted resin and the products were obtained > 95 %... 

Cyclopenta[h]indoles can be synthesized in a multistep, one-pot procedure (Scheme 6.32). The reaction proceeds via an a-alkylation, which is catalyzed by a primary amine-substituted thiourea and two consecutive Brpnsted acid-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions. Stmcturally diverse cyclopenta[ ]indoles can be obtained in high yields with excellent diastereo and enantioselectivities in this operation. Also, the cyclopenta[h]indoles can be converted into cyclopenta-[f>]indolines without loss of stereoselectivity. The potentially useful bisindole units are present in many natural and pharmaceutical products including yuehchukene. It is noteworthy... 

N-Substituted phthalimides. Phthalic anhydride reacts with primary amines only to yield N-substituted phthaUmides ... 

Dissolve 0 5 g. of the primary amine and 0-5 g. of pure phthaUc anhydride in 5 ml. of glacial acetic acid and reflux for 20-30 minutes. (If the amine salt is used, add 1 g. of sodium acetate.) The N-substituted phthaUmide separates out on cooling. Recrystallise it from alcohol or from glacial acetic acid. 

The independent preparation of potassium phthabmide (from a solution of phthalimide in absolute ethanol and potassium hydroxide in 75 per cent, ethanol) may be avoided in many cases by boiling phthalimide with the halide in the presence of anhydrous potassium carbonate. The N-substituted phthalimide (I) is frequently cleav with difficulty this is often facilitated by reaction with hydrazine hydrate to give an intermediate product, which is easily decomposed by hydrochloric acid to 3deld the insoluble hydrazide of phthaUc acid (II) and the primary amine (III) ... 

The modified procedure involves refluxing the N-substituted phthaUmide in alcohol with an equivalent quantity of hydrazine hydrate, followed by removal of the alcohol and heating the residue with hydrochloric acid on a steam bath the phthalyl hydtazide produced is filtered off, leaving the amine hydrochloride in solution. The Gabriel synthesis has been employed in the preparation of a wide variety of amino compounds, including aliphatic amines and amino acids it provides an unequivocal synthesis of a pure primary amine. 

Mono-substitution products of primary amines cannot easUy be prepared by direct action of the appropriate reagent for example, bromination of aniline yields largely the 2 4 6-tribomo derivative and nitration results in much oxidation. If, however, the amino group is protected as in acetanilide, smooth substitution occurs. Thus with bromine, />-bromoacetanilide is the main product the small quantity of the ortlio isomeride simultaneously formed can be easily eliminated by crystallisation. Hydrolysis of p-bromoacetanilide gives/ -bromoaniline ... 

Derivatives with 3-nitrophthalic anhydride. 3-Nitrophthalic anhydride reacts with primary and secondary amines to yield nitro-phthalamic acids it does not react with tertiary amines. The phthalamic acid derived from a primary amine undergoes dehydration when heated to 145° to give a neutral A -substituted 3-nitrophthalimide. The phthalamic acid from a secondary amine is stable to heat and is, of course, soluble in alkali. The reagent therefore provides a method for distinguishing and separating a mixture of primary and secondary amines. 

Benzenesulphonyl chloride reacts with primary and secondary, but not with tertiary, amines to yield substituted sulphonamides (for full discussion, see Section IV,100,3). The substituted sulphonamide formed from a primary amine dissolves in the alkaline medium, whilst that produced from a secondary amine is insoluble in alkali tertiary amines do not react. Upon acidifying the solution produced with a primary amine, the substituted sulphonamide is precipitated. The reactions form the basis of the Hinsberg procedure for the separation of amines see Section IV,100,(viii) for details. Feebly basic amines, such as o-nitroaniline, react slowly in the presence of allcali in such cases it is best to carry out the reaction in pyridine solution see Section IV,100,3. ... 

Primary amines (RNH2) yield N substituted amides (R CNHR)... 

Secondary and tertiary amines are named as N substituted derivatives of primary amines The parent primary amine is taken to be the one with the longest carbon chain The prefix N is added as a locant to identify substituents on the ammo nitrogen as needed... 

Primary amines undergo nucleo philic addition to the carbonyl group of aldehydes and ketones to form carbinol amines These carbinolamines dehydrate under the conditions of their formation to give N substituted imines Secondary amines yield enamines... 

Because nitriles can be prepared from alkyl halides by nucleophilic substitution with cyanide ion the overall process RX RC=N RCH2NH2 leads to primary amines that have one more carbon atom than the starting alkyl halide... 

Secondary amines are prepared by hydrogenation of a carbonyl compound m the presence of a primary amine An N substituted mine or Schijfs base is an intermediate... 

Focants of substituents of symmetrically substituted derivatives of symmetrical amines are distinguished by primes or else the names of the complete substituted radicals are enclosed in parentheses. Unsymmetrically substituted derivatives are named similarly or as A-substituted products of a primary amine (after choosing the most senior of the radicals to be the parent amine). For example. 

Transamidation. Polyacrylamide reacts with primary amines such as hydrazine [302-01-2], N2H4, (54) and hydroxjlamine [7803-49-8]. NH O, (55—57) to form substituted amides with loss of ammonia. 

This reaction can also be utili2ed to prepare functionali2ed initiators by reaction of butyUithium with a substituted 1,1-diphenylethylene derivative. For example, polymers end functionali2ed with primary amine, tertiary amine, phenol, and bis(phenol) groups have been prepared in essentiaUy quantitative yield by using the reaction of butyUithium with the corresponding substituted (or protected) 1,1-diphenylethylene (87). 

Industrially, polyurethane flexible foam manufacturers combine a version of the carbamate-forming reaction and the amine—isocyanate reaction to provide both density reduction and elastic modulus increases. The overall scheme involves the reaction of one mole of water with one mole of isocyanate to produce a carbamic acid intermediate. The carbamic acid intermediate spontaneously loses carbon dioxide to yield a primary amine which reacts with a second mole of isocyanate to yield a substituted urea. 

Primary nitroparaffins react with two moles of formaldehyde and two moles of amines to yield 2-nitro-l,3-propanediamines. With excess formaldehyde, Mannich bases from primary nitroparaffins and primary amines can react further to give nitro-substituted cycHc derivatives, such as tetrahydro-l,3-oxa2iaes or hexahydropyrimidines (38,39). Pyrolysis of salts of Mannich bases, particularly of the boron trifluoride complex (40), yields nitro olefins by loss of the amine moiety. Closely related to the Mannich reaction is the formation of sodium 2-nitrobutane-1-sulfonate [76794-27-9] by warming 1-nitropropane with formaldehyde and sodium sulfite (41). 

Ritter Reaction (Method 4). A small but important class of amines are manufactured by the Ritter reaction. These are the amines in which the nitrogen atom is adjacent to a tertiary alkyl group. In the Ritter reaction a substituted olefin such as isobutylene reacts with hydrogen cyanide under acidic conditions (12). The resulting formamide is then hydroly2ed to the parent primary amine. Typically sulfuric acid is used in this transformation of an olefin to an amine. Stoichiometric quantities of sulfate salts are produced along with the desired amine. 

A number of other N-substituted 2-pyrroHdinones have been offered commercially or promoted as developmental products. These materials offer different and sometimes unique solvency properties. AH are prepared by reaction of butyrolactone with suitable primary amines. Principal examples are Hsted in Table 4. 

The diester (429) has been cyclized with ammonia or primary amines to give the esters (430) (72AP2), whilst the related diester (431) has likewise been converted to (432). Similar reactions starting with TV-substituted o-phenylenediamines have been used as the basis of a synthesis of deazariboflavins (433) (77TL2551). 

The light-induced rearrangement of 2-phenyl- to 3-phenyl-thiophene may occur by a similar mechanism an equilibrium between the bicyclic intermediate (26) and the cyclopro-penylthioaldehyde (27) has been suggested (Scheme 2). The formation of IV-substituted pyrroles on irradiation of either furans or thiophenes in the presence of a primary amine supports this suggestion (Scheme 3). Irradiation of 2-phenylselenophene yields, in addition to 3-phenylselenophene, the enyne PhC=C—CH=CH2 and selenium. Photolysis of 2-phenyltellurophene furnishes solely the enyne and tellurium (76JOM(108)183). 

With secondary amines such as piperidine or dimethylamine the formal products (169) of cine substitution are obtained with primary amines e.g. /-butylamine), in addition to the displacement product (173), a rearranged product (174) is obtained in which the nitrogen-bearing methyl becomes exocyclic 80CC123). Earlier studies on the reaction of... 

The palladium-promoted conversion of 1,3-dienes to pyrroles proceeds via 4-acetoxy-2-alkenylpalladium complexes (Scheme 50g) (81CC59), and a similar pathway may be involved in the palladium mediated reaction of but-2-ene-l,4-diol with primary amines to give A-substituted pyrroles (74CC931).
