- Utility of dysprosium as a reductant in coupling reactions of acyl chlorides: The synthesis of amides and diaryl-substituted acetylenes
-
Reduction of acyl chlorides with dysprosium metal has been studied. The reducing ability of dysprosium metal is solvent-dependent. Dysprosium metal, which requires neither any additive nor pretreatment, can promote the cross-coupling of acyl chlorides in DMF or DEF to give amides in good yields. When the reaction was performed in N,N-dimethylacetamide, the reductive self-coupling reaction of aroyl chloride took place smoothly and afforded the diaryl-substituted acetylenes in moderate to good yield.

- Catalytic Enantioselective α-Fluorination of 2-Acyl Imidazoles via Iridium Complexes
-
The first highly enantioselective α-fluorination of 2-acyl imidazoles utilizing iridium catalysis has been accomplished. This transformation features mild conditions and a remarkably broad substrate scope, providing an efficient and highly enantioselective approach to obtain a wide range of fluorine-containing 2-acyl imidazoles which are found in a variety of bioactive compounds and prodrugs. A large scale synthesis has also been tested to demonstrate the potential utility of this fluorination method.

- Copper-catalyzed amidation of acids using formamides as the amine source
-
Copper-catalyzed amidation of acids with formamides or acetamide for the selective synthesis of amides with the aid of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane as the ligand and tert-butyl hydroperoxide as the oxidant is presented. This method is highly compatible with a wide range of acids, including alkyl acids, aryl acids, α,β-unsaturated acids, and amino acids. A general and direct route for the synthesis of amides is described. The reaction involves the copper-catalyzed amidation of acids, wherein various formamides and an acetamide are used as the amine source. Importantly, this method represents a new strategy for the direct use of acids in the synthesis of amides. DABCO = 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, TBHP = tert-butyl hydroperoxide. Copyright

- Copper-catalyzed oxidative coupling of carboxylic acids with N,N-dialkylformamides: An approach to the synthesis of amides
-
A new synthetic approach for amide bond formation through the oxidative coupling of N,N-dialkylformamides with carboxylic acids was achieved by using a copper catalyst. Furthermore, this method was applied in the coupling of chiral amino acids in which the stereochemistry was retained in the resulting amide products. A new synthetic approach to amide bond formation through the oxidative coupling of N,N-dialkylformamides with carboxylic acids was achieved by using a copper catalyst and aqueous tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as a sacrificial oxidant. Furthermore, this method was applied in the coupling of chiral amino acids in which the stereochemistry was retained in the resulting amide products. Copyright

- Catalytic asymmetric amination of N-nonsubstituted α-alkoxycarbonyl amides: Concise enantioselective synthesis of mycestericina F and G
-
In an attempt to explore the synthetic utility of a ternary asymmetric catalyst comprising La(NO3)3·6H2O, amide-based ligand (R)-L1, and D-valine tert-butyl ester H-D-Val-OtBu, we investigated a catalytic, asymmetric amination of functionalized N-nonsubstituted α-alkoxycarbonyl amides using di-tert-butyl azodicarboxylate as an electrophilic aminating reagent. A highly functionalized, cyclic N-nonsubstituted α-alkoxycarbonyl amide delivered the desired amination product in up to 96% enantiometric excess, with the requisite functionalities of the polar heads of sphingosines with the appropriate stereochemical arrangement. The rapid asymmetric assembly of these functional groups allowed a concise enantioselective synthetic route to sphingosines to be established with a broad flexibility towards derivative synthesis. These studies have culminated in an efficient catalytic enantioselective total synthesis of immunosuppressive fungal metabolites mycestericina F (3a) and G (3b).
