  • Reductive Amination in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals
    Chemical Reviews, 2019
    Co-Authors: Oleg I Afanasyev, Denis Chusov, Dmitry L Usanov, Ekaterina A Kuchuk
    Abstract:

    Reductive Amination plays a paramount role in pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry owing to its synthetic merits and the ubiquitous presence of amines among biologically active compounds. It is one of the key approaches to C-N bond construction due to its operational easiness and a wide toolbox of protocols. Recent studies show that at least a quarter of C-N bond-forming reactions in the pharmaceutical industry are performed via Reductive Amination. This Review concisely compiles information on 71 medical substances that are synthesized by Reductive Amination. Compounds are grouped according to the principle of action, which includes drugs affecting the central nervous system, drugs affecting the cardiovascular system, anticancer drugs, antibiotics, antiviral and antifungal medicines, drugs affecting the urinary system, drugs affecting the respiratory system, antidiabetic medications, drugs affecting the gastrointestinal tract, and drugs regulating metabolic processes. A general synthetic scheme is provided for each compound, and the description is focused on Reductive Amination steps. The green chemistry metric of reaction mass efficiency was calculated for all reactions.

  • hydrogen free Reductive Amination using iron pentacarbonyl as a reducing agent
    Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry, 2017
    Co-Authors: Oleg I Afanasyev, Dmitry L Usanov, Denis Chusov
    Abstract:

    We developed solvent-free Reductive Amination without an external hydrogen source using iron pentacarbonyl as a reducing agent. Neither a catalyst nor any other additives were employed. Various types of substrates are suitable for the reaction, including those with low reactivity, e.g. benzophenone. Among others, the protocol tolerates bromo-, cyano-, benzyloxy-, pyrimidyl and styryl moieties.

  • ruthenium catalyzed Reductive Amination without an external hydrogen source
    Organic Letters, 2015
    Co-Authors: Pavel N Kolesnikov, Niyaz Z Yagafarov, Dmitry L Usanov, Victor I Maleev, Denis Chusov
    Abstract:

    A ruthenium-catalyzed Reductive Amination without an external hydrogen source has been developed using carbon monoxide as the reductant and ruthenium(III) chloride (0.008–2 mol %) as the catalyst. The method was applied to the synthesis of antianxiety agent ladasten.

  • Reductive Amination without an external hydrogen source
    Angewandte Chemie, 2014
    Co-Authors: Denis Chusov, Benjamin List
    Abstract:

    A method of Reductive Amination without an external hydrogen source is reported. Carbon monoxide is used as the reductant. The reaction proceeds efficiently for a variety of carbonyl compounds and amines at low catalyst loadings and is mechanistically interesting as it does not seem to involve molecular hydrogen.
