Abstract

The development of methods and mechanisms for safe and clean reduction is still a vast area for scientific researches. In 1997 N. J. Lawrence; L. Sekhri and co-workers reported the convenient procedure for the reduction of esters, Carboxylic acids, ketones, and aldehydes using tetrabutyl- ammonium fluoride (TBAF) and polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) to the corresponding alcohols. We now found that the same transformation as a mild, environmentally friendly method for reduction of can be achieved with a range of α-aminoacids (1a-1h) which have been converted efficiently to the corresponding β-aminoalcohols: 2-amino-3-methylpentan-1- ol [isoleucinol (2a)], 2-amino-4-(methylthio)butan-1-ol [methioninol (2b)], 2-amino-3- methylbutan-1-ol [valinol (2c)], 2-amino-3-(4’-hydroxyphenyl) propan-1-ol [tyrosinol (2d)], 2-amino-3-phenylethan-1-ol [phenylglycinol (2e)], 2-amino-3-phenylpropan-1-ol [phenylalaninol (2f)], 2-aminoethan-1-ol [glycinol (2g)], and 2-aminopropanol-1-ol [alaninol (2h)], with polymethylhydrosiloxane, PMHS, in the presence of catalytic tetrabutylammonium fluoride, TBAF with > 61% yield. Carboxylic acid derivatives such as amides (3a and 3b) have also been reduced to the corresponding amines: N-ethylaniline (4a) and N-methylaniline (4b) with polymethylhydrosiloxane, PMHS, in the presence of catalytic tetrabutylammonium fluoride, TBAF with > 74% yield. We also found that this transformation can be achieved for the reduction of aromatic nitro compounds to the corresponding amines. A range of aromatic nitro compounds such as (m-Nitroaniline 5a and p-Nitroaniline 6a) have been converted efficiently to the corresponding aromatic amines: 1, 3-diaminobenzene (5b), and 1,4-diaminobenzene (6b) with > 61% yield. The resulting products were identified by comparison their spectra with those of authentic samples
