Abstract

Vinylsilanes undergo intermolecular alkene hydroaminoalkylation with secondary amines in the presence of a titanium mono(aminopyridinato) catalyst to give the branched hydroaminoalkylation products with high regioselectivity. Corresponding reactions of a suitable (2-bromophenyl)vinylsilane combined with a subsequent intramolecular Buchwald–Hartwig amination result in the development of an elegant one-pot procedure for the synthesis of 1,4-benzoazasilines.

  • 12 General Procedure for the One-Pot Synthesis of 1,4-Benzoazasilines, as Exemplified by the Synthesis of Product 44a An oven-dried Schlenk tube equipped with a Teflon stopcock and a magnetic stirring bar was transferred into a nitrogen-filled glovebox and charged with catalyst III (154 mg, 0.20 mmol, 10 mol%) and toluene (0.5 mL). Afterwards, N-methylaniline (3, 214 mg, 2.00 mmol), (ortho-bromophenyl)dimethylvinylsilane (37, 531 mg, 2.20 mmol), and toluene (0.5 mL) were added. After the mixture had been heated to 160 °C for 24 h, the Schlenk tube was cooled to r.t. and transferred back into a nitrogen-filled glovebox. Then Pd2(dba)3 (46 mg, 0.05 mmol, 2.5 mol%), RuPhos (66 mg, 0.1 mmol, 7 mol%), NaOt-Bu (288 mg, 3.0 mmol), and toluene (5 mL) were added. After heating the mixture to 110 °C for additional 24 h, the crude product was purified by flash chromatography (SiO2, PE), to give 1,4-benzoazasiline 44a (420 mg, 1.57 mmol, 79%) as a colorless oil.
