Journal ArticleDOI
N-methoxy-n-methylamides as effective acylating agents
Steven Nahm,Steven M. Weinreb +1 more
TL;DR: Readily preparable N-methoxy-N-methylamides couple in good yields with Grignard and organolithium reagents to produce ketones, and are reduced with hydrides to afford aldehydes.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Alternative Procedure for the Aluminum-Mediated Conversion of Esters to Amides
TL;DR: In this paper, a method was developed for directly converting esters to amides using reagents derived from the reaction of trimethylaluminum with ammonium chloride, methylamine hydrochloride or dimethylamine hydchloride.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthetic aspects of diels-alder cycloadditions with heterodienophiles
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitsunobu reactions of n-alkyl and n-acyl sulfonamides-an efficient route to protected amines
James R. Henry,Lawrence R. Marcin,Matthias C. McIntosh,Paul M. Scola,G. Davis Harris,Steven M. Weinreb +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, N-Methyl p-toluenesulfonamide and N-BOC p-Toluene sulfonamide can be directly coupled with primary and secondary alcohols under Mitsunobu conditions to afford various sulfoneamide-protected amines.
Journal ArticleDOI
β-Trimethylsilylethanesulfonyl chloride (SES-Cl): A new reagent for protection of amines
TL;DR: The title compound, easily prepared in two steps from vinyltrimethylsilane, is a useful reagent for the protection of primary and secondary amines as their sulfonamides, which are cleaved by fluoride ion as mentioned in this paper.
