General description

2-Azaadamantane-N-oxyl (AZADO), a stable nitroxyl radical, is widely employed as catalyst for the oxidation of alcohols.

Application

2-Azaadamantane-N-oxyl (AZADO) may be employed in the following studies:
  • As catalyst for the oxidation of wood cellulose.
  • As catalyst in the total synthesis of Yaku′amide A, a potential cytotoxin obtained from sponge Ceratopsion sp.
  • As oxidant for the oxidation of (S)-glycidol.

Development of a stable nitroxyl radical class of catalysts, 2-azaadamantane N-oxyl (AZADO) and 1-Me-AZADO, for highly efficient oxidation of alcohols is described. AZADO and 1-Me-AZADO exhibit superior catalytic proficiency to TEMPO, converting various sterically hindered alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl

Here we report the first total synthesis and the complete stereochemical assignment of yaku'amide A. Yaku'amide A (1) was isolated from a sponge Ceratopsion sp. as an extremely potent cytotoxin. Its structure was determined except for the C4-stereochemistry in the

Curdlan, amylodextrin, and regenerated cellulose fiber were subjected to electromediated oxidation with a 4-acetamido-TEMPO catalyst in a buffer at pH 6.8 without NaClO or NaClO(2). More than 90% of the C6 primary hydroxyls of Curdlan and amylodextrin were converted to

TEMPO (2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidinyloxy or 2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxyl) and its derivatives are stable nitroxy radicals used as catalysts in organic oxidation reactions. TEMPO was discovered by Lebedev and Kazarnovskii in 1960. The stable free radical nature of TEMPO is due to the presence of bulky substituent groups, which hinder the reaction of the free radical with other molecules.
