Abstract
A convenient carbonylative approach to 2-oxazolidinone derivatives carried out using an ionic liquid (1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethyl sulfate, EmimEtSO4) as the solvent is presented. It is based on the sequential concatenation of two catalytic cycles, both catalyzed by the same metal species (auto-tandem catalysis): the first cycle corresponds to the oxidative monoaminocarbonylation of the triple bond of propargylic amines to give the corresponding 2-ynamide intermediates, while the second one involves the cyclocarbonylation of the latter to yield 2-(2-oxooxazolidin-5-ylidene)-acetamides. Reactions are carried out using a simple catalytic system consisting of PdI2 in conjunction with an excess of KI, and the catalyst/solvent system could be recycled several times without appreciable loss of activity after extraction of the organic product with Et2O.

1. Introduction
Cascade catalysis, in which a catalytic cycle is concatenated to another eventually leading to the final product, is one of the most exciting areas of modern catalysis [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]. Although rather frequent in biological systems [11], where processes may be sequentially catalyzed by different enzymes, it is still relatively rare in chemical transformations, where they usually involve two concatenated cycles. A particularly interesting case, commonly referred as “auto-tandem catalysis” [9], occurs when the same catalytic system is able to catalyze both the concatenated cycles, as shown in Scheme 1.
Scheme 1.
The concept of “auto-tandem catalysis; the same catalyst promotes the two concatenated catalytic cycles.
In this work, we report on the direct synthesis of 2-oxazolidinone derivatives through an auto-tandem catalysis process consisting of the concatenation of two carbonylative catalytic cycles, both catalyzed by the same catalytic system (PdI2 in conjunction with an excess of KI), performed in the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethyl sulfate (EmimEtSO4) as an unconventional solvent.
2. Result and Discussion
Some years ago, we reported a novel method for the synthesis of 2-(2-oxooxazolidin-5-ylidene)acetamides 3 based on the PdI2/KI-catalyzed oxidative carbonylation [12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19] of substituted propargylic amines 1, carried out in the presence of a secondary amine 2 as external nucleophile, water as a promoter, and molecular oxygen as oxidant [20]. The process, carried out at 100 °C in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) as the solvent under 20 atm (at 25 °C) of a 4:1 mixture of CO/air, led to the formation of a Z/E mixture of 3 through the concatenation of two catalytic cycles, both catalyzed by PdI2/KI, so it represented an example of auto-tandem catalysis. The first process corresponded to the oxidative aminocarbonylation of the triple bond [21] of 1 with 2, CO, and O2, to give 2-ynamide intermediates I, while the second process corresponded to the water-promoted oxidative cyclocarbonylation of I to give the final products (Scheme 2; anionic iodide ligands are omitted for clarity) [20].
Scheme 2.
Auto-tandem catalysis leading to oxazolidinones 3 by sequential PdI2/KI-catalyzed oxidative monoaminocarbonylation of propargylic amines 1 to give 2-ynamide intermediates I followed by PdI2/KI-catalyzed and water-promoted oxidative cyclocarbonylation of I (anionic iodide ligands are omitted for clarity).
Considering the importance of the class of products obtained, which are known to possess important pharmacological activities [22,23,24,25], and the current attention devoted to the possibility to carry out catalytic processes in ionic liquids (ILs) as safer and more environmentally friendly solvents with respect to classical VOCs [26,27,28,29,30], coupled to the possibility to recycle the catalytic system, we have herein explored the possibility to perform our process in the ionic liquid EmimEtSO4.
Our first experiment was carried out using N-benzyl-2-methylbut-3-yn-2-amine (1a) as the substrate. This compound was allowed to react with CO, morpholine (2a), O2, and water in the presence of the catalytic system PdI2/KI under the following conditions: PdI2/KI/1a/2a/H2O molar ratio = 1:10:50:250:250, T = 100 °C, P(CO) = 16 atm, P(air) = 4 atm, EmimEtSO4 as the solvent (0.5 mmol of 1a per mL of solvent) (Table 1, entry 1, run 1). After 24 h, the reaction crude was extracted several times with diethyl ether and the collected ethereal phases analyzed by TLC, GLC and GC-MS, who revealed the formation of two products whose MS spectra were compatible with the expected isomeric oxazolidinone products 3aa-Z and 3aa-E. The two isomers were isolated by column chromatography and their structure confirmed by IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopies (Z/E ratio = 3.1:1, total yield = 70%). The yield turned out to be lower using only 2 equiv of 2a instead of 5 (total yield = 55%). These results confirmed the possibility to carry out the auto-tandem catalysis process leading to oxazolidinones 3 in an ionic liquid (IL) as unconventional solvent. We accordingly verified the possibility to recycle the catalyst/solvent system. Thus, the residue obtained after product extraction with diethyl ether (still containing the catalyst dissolved in the IL), after drying under vacuum (to eliminate the residual diethyl ether), was used again by adding to it fresh propargylamine 1a and morpholine (2a) (1:5 ratio). After stirring at 100 °C for 24 h, 3aa was obtained again as a 3.2:1 Z/E mixture in 71% total isolated yield (Table 1, entry 1, run 2), after extraction with diethyl ether. The recycling procedure was then successfully repeated up to six times.

a All reactions were carried out in the presence of PdI2, KI, and H2O at 100 °C under 20 atm (at 25 °C) of a 4:1 mixture CO/air, in EmimEtSO4 for 24 h with a substrate concentration of 0.5 mmol of 1 per mL of ionic liquid. The H2O:2:1:KI:PdI2 molar ratio was 250:250:50:10:1. Conversion of 1 was quantitative in all cases. b Isolated yield (Z+E) based on starting 1. c Determined by isolation of the pure diastereoisomers. d Run 1 corresponds to the 1st experiment, the next runs to recycles. See text for details. e Determined by GLC. The E isomer could be isolated at the pure state after column chromatography, while the Z isomer was isolated with a purity of ca. 60% (by GLC). See the Experimental Section for details.
In order to assess the generality of the method, the reaction was then performed using different combinations of propargylic amines 1a–e and secondary amines 2a–d, with the results shown in Table 1, entries 2–9. As can be seen from Table 1, the method could be successfully applied to propargylic amines bearing various alkyl groups α to the triple bond, including simple alkyl groups (such as methyl and ethyl (1a, 1b, and 1d) and a cyclic chain such as –(CH2)4, (1c)), different groups on nitrogen (such as benzyl (1a–c) and butyl (1e, 1f)), and different nucleophilic secondary amines, both cyclic (as in the case of morpholine (2a), piperidine (2b), and pyrrolidine (2c)) and acyclic (as in the case of diethylamine (2d)). In all cases, good yields of the corresponding 2-(2-oxooxazolidin-5-ylidene)acetamides 3 were obtained (69%–76%), and the PdI2/KI/EmimEtSO4 system could be conveniently recycled up to six times without loss of activity.
3. Experimental Section
3.1. General Information
Chemicals were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich Italia (Milano, Italy) and were used as such without further purification. Melting points were taken on a Reichert Thermovar apparatus and are uncorrected. 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectra were recorded at 25 °C in CDCl3 solutions with a Bruker DPX Avance 300 spectrometer (Bruker Italia, Milano, Italy) operating at 300 MHz and 75 MHz, respectively, with Me4Si as internal standard. IR spectra were taken with a JASCO FT-IR 4200 spectrometer (Jasco Europe s.r.l., Cremella, Lecco, Italy). Mass spectra were obtained using a Shimadzu QP-2010 GC-MS apparatus (Shimadzu Italia, Milano, Italy) at 70 eV ionization voltage. Microanalyses were carried out with a Thermo-Fischer Elemental Analyzer Flash 2000 (Fischer Scientific Italia, Rodani, Milano, Italy). All reactions were analyzed by TLC (Merck Italy, Vimodrone, Milano, Italy) on silica gel 60 F254 (Merck Italy) or on neutral alumina (Merck Italy) and by GLC using a Shimadzu GC-2010 gas chromatograph (Shimadzu Italia) and capillary columns with polymethylsilicone + 5% polyphenylsilicone as the stationary phase (HP-5). Column chromatography was performed on neutral alumina 90 (Merck Italy, 70–230 mesh). Evaporation refers to the removal of solvent under reduced pressure.
3.2. Preparation of Substrates
Starting propargylic amines 1a–e were prepared and characterized as already described [20].
3.3. Preparation of EmimEtSO4
Ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethyl sulfate (EmimEtSO4) was prepared as previously described [31].
3.4. General Procedure for the PdI2/KI-Catalyzed Oxidative Carbonylation of Propargylic Amines (1) with CO, O2, and Secondary Amines (2) in EmimEtSO4 and Recycling Experiments
A 35 mL stainless steel autoclave was charged with PdI2 (8.3 mg, 0.023 mmol), KI (38.3 mg, 0.23 mmol), the starting propargylic amine 1 (1a, 199.0 mg; 1b, 215.0 mg; 1c, 245.0 mg; 1d, 176.0 mg; 1e, 206.0 mg; 1.15 mmol) and the amine 2 (2a, 501.0 mg; 2b, 490.0 mg; 2c, 409.0 mg; 2d, 420.6 mg; 5.75 mmol) in EmimEtSO4 (2.3 mL). Water (103.5 μL, 5.75 mmol) was then added and the autoclave was sealed, and pressurized at 20 atm (16 atm CO and 4 atm Air). After stirring at 100 °C for 24 h, the autoclave was cooled and degassed. The mixture was then extracted with Et2O (6 × 4 mL), and the residue (still containing the catalyst and water dissolved in the ionic liquid) was used as such for the next recycle (see below). The collected ethereal phases were concentrated and the products purified by column chromatography on neutral alumina using as the eluent hexane:AcOEt from 95:5 to 6:4 (the E isomers were eluted first in all cases). (3aa-E, 64.8 mg, 17%; 3aa-Z, 201.4 mg, 53%; 3ab-E, 68.0 mg, 18%; 3ab-Z, 211.5 mg, 56%; 3ac-E, 54.5 mg, 15%; 3ac-Z, 216.7 mg, 60%; 3ad-E, 61.9 mg, 17%; 3ad-Z, 192.8 mg, 53%; 3ba-E, 75.2 mg, 19%; 3ba-Z, 221.8 mg, 56%; 3ca-E, 42.6 mg, 10%; 3ca-Z, 259.9, 61% mg; 3da-E, 39.3 mg, 11%; 3da-Z, 207.0 mg, 58%; 3dd-E, 34.1 mg, 10%; 3ea-E, 50.3 mg, 13%; 3ea-Z, 216.7 mg, 56%). Note: Product 3dd-Z could not be isolated at the pure state by column chromatography, and the GLC analysis evidenced a purity of ca. 60%. The GLC-MS analysis was compatible with the proposed structure and 1H-NMR spectrum of the crude product evidenced a peak at 5.19, compatible with a Z stereochemistry. For testing recycling of the catalyst, after removal of Et2O under vacuum, the residue obtained as described above, still containing the catalyst dissolved in the ionic liquid, was transferred into the autoclave. The starting material 1 (1.15 mmol), the amine 2 (5.75 mmol) and H2O (103.5 μL, 5.75 mmol) was added, and then the same procedure described above was followed.
3.5. Characterization of Products
Oxazolidinones 3aa-Z, 3aa-E, 3ab-Z, 3ab-E, 3ad-Z, 3ad-E, 3ba-Z, 3ba-E, 3ca-Z, 3ca-E, 3da-Z, 3da-E, 3ea-Z, 3ea-E, were characterized by comparison with the characterization data already reported by us [20].
