Practical Asymmetric Synthesis of 1,2-Diamines in the 3-Aminoazepane Series

Authors:

Abstract
A simple and versatile method for the enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of mono- or disubstituted 3-aminoazepanes is described. The key step involves a highly regio- and diastereoselective tandem ring-enlargement/alkylation or reduction process. This novel synthetic route provides enantiomerically pure constrained diamines interesting as scaffolds for medicinal chemistry.
