Mild iodine-magnesium exchange of iodoaromatics bearing a pyrimidine ring with isopropylmagnesium chloride.

[reaction: see text] Iodoaromatics bearing a reactive pyrimidine ring underwent a clean iodine-magnesium exchange with isopropylmagnesium chloride in the presence of bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl] ether to provide the corresponding Grignard reagents. The presence of bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl] ether prevented reduction of the pyrimidine ring and addition by isopropylmagnesium chloride. As a result, the newly formed reactive Grignard reagents were allowed to react with electrophiles in a highly selective manner to afford adducts in excellent yields.

Noncryogenic I/Br-Mg exchange of aromatic halides bearing sensitive functional groups using i-PrMgCl-bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl] ether complexes.

[reaction: see text] Iodo- and bromoaromatics bearing sensitive carboxylic ester and cyano groups underwent a selective halide-magnesium exchange with isopropylmagnesium chloride at ambient temperature in the presence of bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl] ether to afford the corresponding Grignard reagents. The newly formed reactive Grignard reagents were allowed to react with electrophiles such as trimethylborate to afford arylboronic acids in good to excellent yields.

Addition of grignard reagents to aryl acid chlorides: an efficient synthesis of aryl ketones.

[chemical reaction: see text]. Direct addition of Grignard reagents to acid chlorides in the presence of bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl] ether proceeds selectively to provide aryl ketones in high yields. A possible tridentate interaction between Grignard reagents and bis[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl] ether moderates the reactivity of Grignard reagents, preventing the newly formed ketones from nucleophilic addition by Grignard reagents.

First application of tunable alkyl or aryl sulfinamides to the stereoselective synthesis of a chiral amine: asymmetric synthesis of (R)-didesmethylsibutramine ((R)-DDMS) using (R)-triethylmethylsulfinamide ((R)-TESA).

A highly diastereoselective addition of i-BuLi to a triethylmethylsulfinamide derived aldimine was used as the key step in the first asymmetric synthesis of (R)-didesmethylsibutramine, a metabolite of sibutramine for the potential treatment of CNS disorders. [reaction: see text]

Properly designed modular asymmetric synthesis for enantiopure sulfinamide auxiliaries from N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-oxathiazolidine-2-oxide agents.

Simple and practical asymmetric synthesis of functionally differentiated aminoindanol based endo-N-sulfonyl 1,2,3-oxathiazolidine-2-oxide as sulfinyl transfer agents are developed. The importance of these new and unique sulfinyl transfer reagents are exemplified by the expedient production of several sulfinamide ligands, including either enantiomer of (R)-tert-butanesulfinamide in excellent yields and enantiopurities.
