Abstract
While developing a synthesis towards tagged dizocilpine (MK-801) analogues, we observed highly restricted inversion of a nitrogen centre in a number hydroxylamines obtained as key intermediates. These compounds are shown to possess some of the structural elements which are expected to significantly hinder the nitrogen inversion, potentially leading to hydroxylamines with a chiral nitrogen centre. Free energy barriers (Delta G(not equal)) of the nitrogen inversion were estimated to be ca. 22 kcal mol(-1) at temperatures near 420 K using variable temperature NMR measurements in DMSO-d(6). Further density functional studies of a number model systems were undertaken in order to better rationalize the measured inversion barriers and follow the role of various structural factors in raising the barrier height of the nitrogen inversion process.
