• Complicated by
polyalkylation.
 Useful for preparing 1° amines and
quaternary ammonium salts

Editor's Notes

  • #21 The Gabriel synthesis is a chemical reaction that transforms primary alkyl halides into primary amines. Traditionally, the reaction uses potassium phthalimide. he reaction is named after the German chemist Siegmund Gabriel. The Gabriel reaction has been generalized to include the alkylation of sulfonamides and imides, followed by deprotection, to obtain amines  Traditional Gabriel Synthesis- he sodium or potassium salt of phthalimide is N-alkylated with a primary alkyl halide to give the corresponding N-alkylphthalimide. The reaction fails with most secondary alkyl halides: Alternative Gabriel reagents - Many alternative reagents have been developed to complement the use of phthalimides. Most such reagents, e.g. the sodium salt of saccharin, are electronically similar to the phthalimide salts. In terms of their advantages, some such alternative reagents hydrolyze more readily, extend the reactivity to secondary alkyl halides, and allow the production of secondary amines.
  • #23 Reductive amination (also known as reductive alkylation) is a form of amination that involves the conversion of a carbonyl group to an amine via an intermediate imine. The carbonyl group is most commonly a ketone or an aldehyde. It is considered the most important way to make amines, and a majority of amines made in the pharmaceutical industry are made this way
  • #26 Hofmann elimination gives the less substituted alkene, where E2 elimination of an alkyl halide or tosylate will follow Zaitsev rule to give the more substituted alkene
