A Modified U-4CR Reaction with 2-Nitrobenzylamine as an Ammonia Equivalent
Publication History
Publication Date:
22 September 2006 (online)
Abstract
A modified U-4CR reaction has been done by using commercially available 2-nitrobenzylamine as an ammonia equivalent and it involves a multi-component reaction, followed by photochemical cleavage of the 2-nitrobenzyl group, which can be done in one pot with good yields.
Key words
multicomponent reaction - photochemistry - peptides - isocyanide - ammonia equivalent

References and Notes
The general procedure of this method is shown as follows: An aldehyde component (1 mmol), 2-nitrobenzylamine (1 mmol), and MeOH (5 mL) were mixed in a 10-mL quartz flask until the mixture became a clear solution. An isocyanide component (1 mmol) and a carboxylic acid component (1 mmol) were added into the solution and the mixture was stirred at r.t. for 2 d. Then the mixture was irradiated in a quartz flask inside a Rayonet photochemical reactor with four 254-nm lamps at r.t. The reaction was monitored by 1H NMR spectroscopy, and the reaction was complete in 6-13 h. After the reaction was completed, MeOH was removed by a rotary evaporator, and the residue was purified by column chromatography to get the dipeptides 1a-1e.1a: Light brown solid; mp 119 °C; yield: 93%. 1H NMR (CD3OD): δ = 0.94 (d, J = 7.6 Hz, CH3, 3 H), 0.96 (d, J = 7.6 Hz, CH3, 3 H), 2.14-2.15 (m, 1 H, CH), 2.20 (s, 3 H, CH3), 4.37 (d, J = 8.4 Hz, CH, 1 H), 7.06 (d, J = 8.2 Hz, PhH, 2 H), 7.44-7.47 (m, 5 H, PhH), 7.84 (d, J = 8.2 Hz, PhH, 2 H). 13C NMR (CDCl3): δ = 19.46, 19.74, 20.83, 31.19, 60.81, 120.39, 128.23, 129.00, 129.81, 132.12, 133.55, 134.95, 136.82, 167.98, 171.04.
