Metal-Free Oxidative C=C Bond Cleavage of Electron-Deficient Enamines Promoted by tert-Butyl Hydroperoxide

Abstract: A novel tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP)-promoted oxidative C=C double-bond cleavage of enamines is described. Heating a solution of an electron-deficient enamine in chlorobenzene at 80 °C in the presence of TBHP for two hours led to cleavage of the C=C bond. This study offers a new strategy to carry out C=O double-bond formation by the use of TBHP.

“…This indeed enhances the probability for easy electronic transition that could promote catalysis. Thus, the effective catalytic activity of MOP-Am2 is attributed to the rich delocalization of conjugated π-electrons due to the presence of a nitrogen heteroatom, leading to a strong π···π or C–H···π interaction between the catalyst and styrenes or benzyl alcohols. , In effect, it gears up the electron-transfer process between the catalyst and the individual substrate and thereby stimulates catalysis. A similar observation is that an electron-donating group improves styrene conversion and vice versa because of the decrease of the quantitative electric charge on the CC double bond of styrenes.…”
