Cerium (IV) Ammonium Nitrate (CAN) Mediated Reactions IV. A Highly Efficient Synthesis of N,N’-Diarylsubstituted Formamidines in Water at Ambient Temperature

Abstract: A green, simple and highly efficient synthesis of N,N-diarylsubstituted formamidines has been developed employs reaction of triethylorthoformate (TEO) with aromatic amines catalyzed by cerium (IV) ammonium nitrate (CAN) in water at ambient temperature. This method offers the advantages of proceeding under environmentally friendly technique with high yields and simplicity either in conducting the reaction or handling the products.

“…Some of the formamidine synthesis has also been performed in organic solvent like acetic acid under thermal conditions, reduction of 1,3‐disubstituted urea in pyridine and catalytic hydrogenation of carbodiimides . The other methods involving synthesis of formamidines are reduction of carbamide by sodium borohydride in isopropanol, use of catalyst like sulfated zirconia, hexafluroisoproanol as fluorinated solvent, cerium (IV) ammonium nitrate . However, some of these protocols are generally associated with one or more disadvantages, such as long reaction times, high reaction temperatures, low yields, complex handling procedures, problematic side reactions, environmental concerns associated with the use of metal and acidic catalysts, use of organic solvents, etc.…”

“…Exchange reactions of N,N -dimethylformamidines or acetamidines by a variety of amines have been reported to be the most popular method for the synthesis of symmetrical and unsymmetrical formamidines. We have developed a simple and green route for the synthesis of N,N?-diaryl-formamidines 124 via the reaction of aromatic amines with triethylorthoformate 123 in water at room temperature catalyzed by CAN acting as a Lewis acid catalyst (Scheme 29 and Table 21) [87].

“…In recent decades, N, N'-diaryl formamidines and their anions have been widely used in various fields of organic and medicinal chemistry. [18][19][20][21] These types of compounds have many biological and pharmaceutical properties, including antimalarial, [22] anesthetic, [23] ultraviolet light absorbent, [24] antihypertensive, [25] and renal dipeptidase inhibitory [26] activities.…”
