Pyridines as leaving groups in synthetic transformations: conversion of amines into esters

TL;DR: In this article, primary amines RCH2NH2 were converted into acetates (MeCO2CH2R) and benzoates (PhCO2Ch2R), in a two-step process: (a) reaction with triphenylpyrylium tetrafluoroborate and (b) pyrolysis of the pyridinium tetraplasticoborate so obtained with the sodium carboxylate.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Novel Synthesis of Acyclic N-(α-Hydroxybenzyl)benzamides

TL;DR: In this paper, N-hydroxybenzamides react with hydroxymethylbenzotriazole to give (benzoteriazol-1-yl)methyl derivatives, which are converted by aryl Grignard reagents into acyclic N-(α-hydroxybenzyl)-benz amides.
Journal ArticleDOI

An efficient method for the preparation of peptide alcohols

TL;DR: N-protected LL-dipeptide alcohols 3a-p, diastereomeric mixture (3d + 3d') and tripeptidealcohols 6a-c were synthesized by treatment of various amino alcohols with N-protected(alpha-aminoacyl)benzotriazoles 5a, 5b respectively in good yields with complete retention of chirality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lewis Acid-Catalyzed Additions of (Benzotriazol-1-yl)diethoxymethane to Enol Ethers and Enamides. New Syntheses of beta-Alkoxyalkanal and beta-Aminoalkanal Acetals.

TL;DR: Adding (benzotriazol-1-yl)diethoxymethane 11 to various acyclic and cyclic enol ethers and enamides produces the corresponding adducts, which were reacted with either NaAlH(4) or Grignard reagents to afford known but previously difficult-to-access classes of compounds.
