Advances in the field of the synthesis of amino derivatives of terpenoids
Information on the synthesis of amino derivatives of monoterpenes by the reduction of oximes by the Leuckart reaction, and by the reductive amination of ketones by amines and nitriles is generalized. The stereochemistry of the amines formed as the result of the above-mentioned reactions is discussed.
Stereoselective cathodic synthesis of 8-substituted (1R,3R,4S)-menthylamines
Summary The electrochemical generation of menthylamines from the corresponding menthone oximes equipped with an additional substituent in position 8 is described. Due to 1,3-diaxial interactions a pronounced diastereoselectivity for the menthylamines is found.
Catalytic removal of tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBS) ether by PVP-I
Abstract A mild, efficient and rapid protocol the deprotection of alcoholic TBDMS ethers using PVP-1 as catalyst in methanol, the procedure of deprotection of various TBDMS ethers were found to be very convenient, easy work-up, high yielding.
