2-Aminopyrrolyl Dilithium Compounds: Synthesis, Structural Diversity, and Catalytic Activity for Amidation of Aldehydes with Amines
文摘
Five dilithium compounds containing bidentate dianionic pyrrolyl ligands, [{2-(CH3NCH2)C4H3N}Li2(TMEDA)3] (1), {[渭-畏5-2-[CH3CH2NCH2]C4H3N]Li2(TMEDA)}2 (2), {[渭-畏5:畏1-2-[(CH3)3CNCH2]C4H3N]Li2(TMEDA)}2 (3), {[畏5-2-[(CH3)2CHNCH2]C4H3N]Li2 (TMEDA)}2 (4), and {[畏5-2-[(CH2)5CHNCH2]C4H3N]Li2(TMEDA)}2 (5), were synthesized, and their structural features were provided. Compounds 1鈥?b>5 were proved to be a series of efficient catalysts for amidation reactions of aldehydes with amines in good to excellent yields under mild conditions.
