  • Iridium-Catalyzed Reductive Nucleophilic Addition to Secondary Amides.
    Organic letters, 2018
    Co-Authors: Yoshito Takahashi, Takaaki Sato, Risa Yoshii, Noritaka Chida
    Abstract:

    An iridium-catalyzed reductive Nucleophilic Addition to secondary amides is reported. After the iridium-catalyzed reduction, the resulting imines can undergo the Strecker reaction, the Mannich reaction, allylation, and [3 + 2]-cycloAddition. The method shows high chemoselectivity in the presence of other functional groups such as methyl ester.

  • Total synthesis of complex alkaloids by Nucleophilic Addition to amides.
    Organic & biomolecular chemistry, 2018
    Co-Authors: Takaaki Sato, Makoto Yoritate, Hayato Tajima, Noritaka Chida
    Abstract:

    Nucleophilic Addition to amides has been recognized as a promising transformation for total synthesis of complex alkaloids. Amides can accept two different organometallic reagents through the Nucleophilic Addition, which enables it to serve as a stable surrogate of multi-substituted amines. However, the Nucleophilic Addition has been overlooked for a long time due to three main reasons: low electrophilicity of amide carbonyls, potential hydrolysis of the reaction intermediate and excess Addition of an organometallic reagent. This mini review focuses on the recent progress of total synthesis of complex alkaloids based on the Nucleophilic Additions to N-alkoxyamides, tertiary amides and secondary amides.

  • Iridium-catalyzed chemoselective reductive Nucleophilic Addition to n -methoxyamides
    Organic letters, 2015
    Co-Authors: Minami Nakajima, Takaaki Sato, Noritaka Chida
    Abstract:

    Iridium-catalyzed reductive Nucleophilic Addition to N-methoxyamides is reported. The reaction took place in high yields in the presence of a variety of sensitive functional groups such as esters and nitro groups. Mechanistic studies revealed that the reaction of N-methoxyamides proceeded without equilibrium to an enamine intermediate in contrast to that with tert-amides.

  • Chemoselective reductive Nucleophilic Addition to tertiary amides, secondary amides, and N-methoxyamides.
    Chemistry (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse Germany), 2014
    Co-Authors: Minami Nakajima, Kenji Shirokane, Takaaki Sato, Yukiko Oda, Takamasa Wada, Ryo Minamikawa, Noritaka Chida
    Abstract:

    As the complexity of targeted molecules increases in modern organic synthesis, chemoselectivity is recognized as an important factor in the development of new methodologies. Chemoselective Nucleophilic Addition to amide carbonyl centers is a challenge because classical methods require harsh reaction conditions to overcome the poor electrophilicity of the amide carbonyl group. We have successfully developed a reductive Nucleophilic Addition of mild nucleophiles to tertiary amides, secondary amides, and N-methoxyamides that uses the Schwartz reagent [Cp2 ZrHCl]. The reaction took place in a highly chemoselective fashion in the presence of a variety of sensitive functional groups, such as methyl esters, which conventionally require protection prior to Nucleophilic Addition. The reaction will be applicable to the concise synthesis of complex natural alkaloids from readily available amide groups.

  • Nucleophilic Addition to N-alkoxyamides.
    Organic & biomolecular chemistry, 2014
    Co-Authors: Takaaki Sato, Noritaka Chida
    Abstract:

    An amide group is one of the most abundant functional groups in organic synthesis. However, Nucleophilic Addition to amide carbonyls has received less attention than their construction due to their high stability. In this Perspective, we describe our recent progress with N-alkoxyamides. Incorporation of an N-alkoxy group as a reactivity control element into the nitrogen atom of an amide successfully overcomes issues inherent to the Nucleophilic Addition. The reaction can introduce two different nucleophiles in a one-pot process, giving a variety of substituted amines. When the Schwartz reagent was used in the first reduction step, high chemoselectivity was observed in the presence of sensitive functional groups such as esters, which resulted in the concise total synthesis of (±)-gephyrotoxin.
