RESUMEN
N-Thioacyl 1,3-amino alcohols were synthesized via the ring-opening of oxiranes with thioamide dianions generated from N-benzyl thioamides and BuLi in a highly regio- and stereoselective manner. The diastereomers of N-thioacyl 1,3-amino alcohols were readily separated by column chromatography to give stereochemically defined N-thioacyl 1,3-amino alcohols. They underwent intramolecular cyclization with Bu4F and EtI to give 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazines. The reaction was specific with anti-N-thioacyl 1,3-amino alcohols, and cis-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazines were obtained with high efficiency, whereas the reaction of a syn-alcohol gave a thioimidate as a major product. The reduction of N-thioacyl 1,3-amino alcohols with LiAlH4gave N-alkyl 1,3-amino alcohols in high yields. The use of optically active propylene oxide as a starting material gave the corresponding oxazine and alcohols in optically pure forms.

Thioamide dianions were generated by the highly efficient reaction of N-benzyl thioamides with 2 equiv of BuLi. Alkylation, allylation, and silylation took place selectively at the carbon atom adjacent to the nitrogen atom of the thioamide dianions. Oxiranes and an aldehyde were also used as electrophiles in the reaction of thioamide dianions to form N-thioacyl 1,3- or 1,2-amino alcohols. The insertion reaction of elemental sulfur to a thioamide dianion and subsequent ethylation afforded a N-thioacyl hemithioaminal. NMR studies on the thioamide mono- and dianions derived from N-benzyl 2-methoxythiobenzamide showed a linear relationship between the chemical shifts of all carbon atoms of thioamide mono- and dianions. The results also suggested that the negative charge at the benzylic carbon atom of the dianion is not fully delocalized. The charge distribution patterns of the dianion are consistent with those of pi polarization.
RESUMEN
The selective generation of selenoamide monoanion and dianion was achieved by reacting N-benzyl selenobenzamide with BuLi. Alkylation of the dianion with 1 equiv of electrophile took place at the carbon atom adjacent to the nitrogen atom, and subsequent hydrolysis produced functionalized selenoamides in good to high yields. Ring opening of oxiranes using the dianion proceeded with high regio- and stereoselectivity to form N-3-hydroxy-1-phenylalkyl selenobenzamides. The stereochemistry of the major isomer derived from cyclohexene oxide was determined by X-ray molecular structure analysis. [reaction: see text]
