The first procedure to access N‐tosylimines directly from alcohols under mild and neutral conditions is reported. The protocol involves saccharin‐lithium bromide‐catalyzed oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes/ketones with chloramine‐T followed by their condensation with the in situ generated oxidation by‐product p‐toluenesulfonamide in the same reaction vessel to afford N‐tosylimines in 40–90% overall yields. The present work opens up a new and efficient synthetic route to N‐tosyimines directly from alcohols in a one‐pot procedure. 相似文献
New reaction conditions for the rapid and productive intermolecular aminochlorination reaction of alkenes using a combination of chloramine‐T and a Brønstedt acid are described. Upon simple protonation of chloramine‐T, conditions for a mild and selective aminochlorination are obtained. In addition, the reaction can proceed to form either of the two possible regioisomers, depending on whether a stoichiometric amount of such an acid activator or acetic acid is used as solvent. The reaction is operative for all different classes of alkenes. A total of over 50 examples is presented to illustrate this concept.
