摘要: 还原胺化反应是一种将醛酮转换成胺的实用方法。我们以还原胺化反应为例,介绍一个面向高年级本科生的有机化学综合实验——硅烷参与的间苯二甲醛还原胺化制备间苯二甲胺。该反应以氨基甲酸叔丁酯(BocNH2)为氮源,三乙基硅烷(Et3SiH)为还原剂,在三氟乙酸的催化下,间苯二甲醛经过还原胺化得到叔丁氧基羰基(Boc)保护的间苯二甲胺;随后,通过脱除Boc保护基团,得到间苯二甲胺盐酸盐;最后经氢氧化钠处理,得到产物间苯二甲胺。实验过程涉及了多种操作技术,如萃取、减压蒸馏、干燥、重结晶、熔点测定,同时还包括了薄层色谱、红外光谱和核磁共振等分析测试方法。该路线适用于实验室合成,产品收率高且易于纯化。本实验对于学生有机合成实验能力的培养和提高,加深对波谱理论知识的理解和应用等具有很好的教学效果。

Abstract: Reductive amination is a practical method for converting carbonyl compounds to amines. Using this reaction as an example, we introduce a comprehensive organic chemistry experiment designed for senior undergraduates: the reductive amination of isophthalaldehyde with silane to synthesize m-xylylenediamine. In this reaction, tert-butyl carbamate (BocNH2) serves as the nitrogen source, and triethylsilane (Et3SiH) acts as the reducing agent, with trifluoroacetic acid as the catalyst. Isophthalaldehyde undergoes reductive amination to produce Boc-protected m-xylylenediamine, which is subsequently deprotected to yield m-xylylenediamine hydrochloride. The final product, m-xylylenediamine, is obtained by treating the hydrochloride salt with sodium hydroxide. The experimental procedure includes techniques such as extraction, vacuum distillation, drying, recrystallization, and melting point determination, along with analytical methods like thin-layer chromatography (TLC), infrared (IR) spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. This synthetic route is well-suited for laboratory synthesis, providing high yields and easy purification of the product. The experiment enhances students’ skills in organic synthesis and deepens their understanding and application of spectroscopic techniques.
