  • Reactivity of Aziridinium Salts in Different Solvents Unraveled by a Combined Theoretical and Experimental Approach
    Topics in Heterocyclic Chemistry, 2014
    Co-Authors: Hannelore Goossens, Dietmar Hertsen, Karen Mollet, Saron Catak, Matthias D'hooghe, Frank De Proft, Paul Geerlings, Norbert De Kimpe, Michel Waroquier, Veronique Van Speybroeck
    Abstract:

    This chapter focuses on the importance of Aziridinium ions as intermediates in organic chemistry. The principal aim is to gain insight into the factors to take into account for the selective synthesis of a variety of functionalized amines via Aziridinium salts, such as the nature of the Aziridinium ion (ring strain and N- and C-substituents of the aziridine ring), the nucleophile, and the solvent environment. Molecular modeling is used to investigate kinetics, electrostatics, and frontier molecular orbitals of reactions involving intermediate Aziridinium ions, such as the nucleophilic ring opening of aziridines, the ring expansion of nitrogen heterocycles, and the ene reactions with triazolinedione.

  • nucleophile dependent regio and stereoselective ring opening of 1 azoniabicyclo 3 1 0 hexane tosylate
    Chemistry-an Asian Journal, 2014
    Co-Authors: Mikyung Ji, Hannelore Goossens, Dietmar Hertsen, Norbert De Kimpe, Michel Waroquier, Matthias Dhooghe, Dooha Yoon, Veronique Van Speybroeck, Hyunjoon Ha
    Abstract:

    1-[(1R)-(1-Phenylethyl)]-1-azoniabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane tosylate was generated as a stable bicyclic Aziridinium salt from the corresponding 2-(3-hydroxypropyl)aziridine upon reaction with p-toluenesulfonyl anhydride. This bicyclic Aziridinium ion was then treated with various nucleophiles including halides, azide, acetate, and cyanide in CH3CN to afford either piperidines or pyrrolidines through regio- and stereoselective ring opening, mediated by the characteristics of the applied nucleophile. On the basis of DFT calculations, ring-opening reactions under thermodynamic control yield piperidines, whereas reactions under kinetic control can yield both piperidines and pyrrolidines depending on the activation energies for both pathways.

  • regioselectivity in the ring opening of non activated aziridines
    ChemInform, 2012
    Co-Authors: Sonja Stankovic, Saron Catak, Michel Waroquier, Veronique Van Speybroeck, Matthias Dhooghe, Heesung Eum, Norbert De Kimpe
    Abstract:

    In this critical review, the ring opening of non-activated 2-substituted aziridinesvia intermediate Aziridinium salts will be dealt with. Emphasis will be put on the relationship between the observed regioselectivity and inherent structural features such as the nature of the C2 aziridine substituent and the nature of the electrophile and the nucleophile. This overview should allow chemists to gain insight into the factors governing the regioselectivity in Aziridinium ring openings (81 references).

  • systematic study of halide induced ring opening of 2 substituted Aziridinium salts and theoretical rationalization of the reaction pathways
    European Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2010
    Co-Authors: Matthias Dhooghe, Saron Catak, Michel Waroquier, Veronique Van Speybroeck, Sonja Stankovic, Yongeun Kim, Norbert De Kimpe
    Abstract:

    The ring-opening reactions of 2-alkyl-substituted 1,1-bis(arylmethyl)- and 1-methyl-1-(1-phenylethyl)Aziridinium salts with fluoride, chloride, bromide and iodide in acetonitrile have been evaluated for the first time in a systematic way. The reactions with fluoride afforded regioisomeric mixtures of primary and secondary fluorides, whereas secondary β-chloro, β-bromo and β-iodo amines were obtained as the sole reaction products from the corresponding halides by regiospecific ring opening at the substituted position. Both experimental and computational results revealed that the reaction outcomes in the cases of chloride, bromide and iodide were dictated by product stability through thermodynamic control involving rearrangement of the initially formed primary halides to the more stable secondary halides. The ring opening of the same Aziridinium salts with fluoride, however, was shown to be mediated by steric interactions (kinetic control), with the corresponding primary β-fluoro amines being obtained as the main reaction products. Only for 2-acylAziridinium ions was the reaction outcome shown to be under full substrate control, affording secondary β-fluoro, β-chloro, β-bromo and β-iodo amines through exclusive attack at the activated α-carbonyl carbon atom.

  • regio and stereospecific ring opening of 1 1 dialkyl 2 aryloxymethyl Aziridinium salts by bromide
    ChemInform, 2006
    Co-Authors: Matthias Dhooghe, Veronique Van Speybroeck, Michel Waroquier, Norbert De Kimpe
    Abstract:

    Enantiomerically pure 2-(aryloxymethyl)aziridines are efficiently transformed into chiral N-(2-bromo-3-aryloxypropyl)amines via a regio- and stereospecific ring opening of the intermediate Aziridinium salts, and the experimental results are rationalized on the basis of some high level ab initio calculations.
