Stereoretentive Deuteration of ?-Chiral Amines with D2O.


ABSTRACT: We present the direct and stereoretentive deuteration of primary amines using Ru-bMepi (bMepi = 1,3-(6'-methyl-2'-pyridylimino)isoindolate) complexes and D2O. High deuterium incorporation occurs at the ?-carbon (70-99%). For ?-chiral amines, complete retention of stereochemistry is achieved when using an electron-deficient Ru catalyst. The retention of enantiomeric purity is attributed to a high binding affinity of an imine intermediate with ruthenium, as well as to a fast H/D exchange relative to ligand dissociation.
