KIM, JM BOGDAN, MA MARIANO, PS 2024-01-21T22:13:21Z 2024-01-21T22:13:21Z 2022-01-11 1993-11-17 0002-7863 https://pubs.kist.re.kr/handle/201004/145951 An investigation designed to probe flavin-promoted oxidative deaminations of amines is described. 3-Methyllumiflavin (3MLF) has been found to promote clean conversion of benzylamine to N-benzylbenzaldimine under acid (HCl or MgCl2) catalyzed, thermal (80-degrees-C) conditions. The reaction is subject to multiple turnover. Amine structure (1-degrees > 2-degrees > 3-degrees) and alpha-electrofugal group leaving ability (TMS+ > H+) are found to influence reactivity. In addition, the internal d-isotope effect measured for the ground-state reaction by using PhCHDNH2 is found to be 4.3, a value greatly different from the 1.6 measured for the excited-state (SET) reaction run under nearly identical (20-degrees-C rather than 80-degrees-C) conditions. Additional mechanistic information has come from observations which show that benzylamine undergoes instantaneous reaction with N5-ethyl-3-methyllumiflavinium perchlorate to produce a stable 4a-adduct. In addition, this adduct is transformed quantitatively to N-benzylbenzaldimine when treated with benzylamine at 60-degrees-C. These results suggest that the ground-state reaction of PhCH2NH2 promoted by 3MLF follows a polar mechanism involving formation of and elimination in a covalent 4a-(N-benzylamino)dihydroflavin intermediate.
