- One-pot sequential Schmidt and Ritter reactions for the synthesis of N-tert-butyl amides
-
The first example of the direct conversion of benzaldehydes into their corresponding N-tert-butyl amides through a Schmidt reaction/Ritter reaction sequence is described. A reagent mixture consisting of NaN3 and HBF4?OEt2 in acetic acid efficiently reacts with aromatic and conjugated (α,β-unsaturated) aldehydes to produce nitrile derivatives, which in situ undergo a Ritter reaction with tert-butyl acetate to afford the corresponding N-tert-butyl amides in almost quantitative yields. The method needs no column chromatography purification. The wide substrate scope as well as the ready availability of the reagent system also make this protocol convenient.

- Mechanistic insights and safety evaluation of the Ritter reaction utilizing tert -butyl acetate as the tert -butyl cation source
-
The Ritter reaction utilizing tert-butyl acetate as the tert-butyl cation source was investigated by in situ FTIR and calorimetry under various reaction conditions. It was established that, when a batch mode reaction in acetic acid was performed, minimal isobutylene was evolved into the headspace, thereby avoiding pressurization of the reaction vessel. The safety of these conditions is due to the equilibrium of isobutylene and acetic acid with tert-butyl acetate. In addition, the observation of acetic anhydride provided insight into the role of acetic acid in the mechanistic pathway.

- Method for synthesizing amide by using methyl arene and amine in water phase
-
The invention provides a high-efficient method of synthesizing amide with methyl aromatics and amine. In the method, with the methyl aromatics and the amine as the raw materials in the water phase and TBHP and TBAI respectively as an oxidizing agent and a catalyst, a sp3 C-H bond and a sp3 N-H bond are broken and a C-N bond is formed. Compared with a conventional method of synthesizing the amide from oxidized amide, in which an activated acyl group or amine is required, the method is carried out with water as the solvent so that the method is not only economical but also environmental-protective. The method has a very good application prospect in the field of synthesizing polypeptide, protein and drugs in future.

Catalyst free synthesis of 6-aryl phenanthridines and amides through an electrochemical reaction is reported in this study. The coupling reaction proceeds by the cathodic reduction ofin situformed diazonium ions, which are formed from anilines and an alkyl nitrite. The generated aryl radical diazonium ions coupled from isocyanides furnished the desired products in good yields. This cascade reaction was conducted in an undivided cell equipped with an RVC as the anode and Pt as the cathode usingnBu4NBF4as the electrolyte at room temperature. A series of detailed mechanistic studies have also been performed, including a radical clock experiment and cyclic voltammetry analysis.

- Insight into Regioselective Control in Aerobic Oxidative C-H/C-H Coupling for C3-Arylation of Benzothiophenes: Toward Structurally Nontraditional OLED Materials
-
The installation of (benzo)thiophene-containing biaryls via coupling reactions has become a staple in designing photoelectric materials. Undeniably, C-H/C-H cross-coupling reactions between two (hetero)aromatics would be a shortcut toward these structural fragments. While more reliable cross-coupling technologies are well-established to provide C2-arylated (benzo)thiophenes, efficient methods that arylate the C3-position remain underdeveloped. Herein we provide insight into the factors that determine regioselectivity switching for these cross-coupling reactions. X-ray crystallographic analysis gives solid evidence for the key roles of triflate in regioselective dearomatization and acetate in base-assisted anti-β-deprotonated rearomatization. The first isolation and X-ray characterization of a medium-sized dearomatized cyclometalated adduct involving both substrates provide extra insight into aerobic oxidative Ar-H/Ar-H cross-coupling reactions. The mechanistic breakthrough incubates the first example, enabling C-H/C-H-type C3-arylation of benzothiophenes. Finally, this chemistry is used to design blue-emitting thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials with a helicene conformation that exhibit a high maximum external quantum efficiency of 25.4% in OLED.

The catalytic aminocarbonylation of (hetero)aryl halides is widely applied in the synthesis of amides but relies heavily on the use of precious metal catalysis. Herein, we report an aminocarbonylation of (hetero)aryl halides using a simple cobalt catalyst under visible light irradiation. The reaction extends to the use of (hetero)aryl chlorides and is successful with a broad range of amine nucleophiles. Mechanistic investigations are consistent with a reaction proceeding via intermolecular charge transfer involving a donor-acceptor complex of the substrate and cobaltate catalyst.

-
This manuscript describes synthesis of BF3-functionlized β-cylcodextrine grafted magnetic CoFe2O4 nanaoparticles as a hybrid magnetic nano-composite (CoFe2O4?SiO2-NH-βCD-BF3). The CoFe2O4?SiO2-NH-βCD-BF3 was fabricated by grafting of 6-O-toluenesulfonyl cyclodextrin (6-Ts-βCD) to 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane coated magnetic CoFe2O4?SiO2 nanoparticles followed by combination with BF3. The CoFe2O4?SiO2-NH-βCD-BF3was characterized by FT-IR, TGA, VSM and SEM techniques. The feasibility of using CoFe2O4?SiO2-NH-βCD-BF3 as a magnetically recoverable catalyst was confirmed in the modified-Ritter reaction. The result showed that this novel nano-composite could serve as an efficient nanoreactor bearing super-acidic sites formed by immobilized BF3 and reuse at least for 6 times without loss in activity.

- Oxidative C?H/C?H Cross-Coupling Reactions between N-Acylanilines and Benzamides Enabled by a Cp*-Free RhCl3/TFA Catalytic System
-
By making use of a dual-chelation-assisted strategy, a completely regiocontrolled oxidative C?H/C?H cross-coupling reaction between an N-acylaniline and a benzamide has been accomplished for the first time. This process constitutes a step-economic and highly efficient pathway to 2-amino-2′-carboxybiaryl scaffolds from readily available substrates. A Cp*-free RhCl3/TFA catalytic system was developed to replace the [Cp*RhCl2]2/AgSbF6 system generally used in oxidative C?H/C?H cross-coupling reactions between two (hetero)arenes (Cp=pentamethylcyclopentadienyl, TFA=trifluoroacetic acid). The RhCl3/TFA system avoids the use of the expensive Cp* ligand and AgSbF6. As an illustrative example, the procedure developed herein greatly streamlines the total synthesis of the naturally occurring benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloid oxynitidine, which was accomplished in excellent overall yield.

- Sulfur–Fluoride Exchange (SuFEx)-Mediated Synthesis of Sterically Hindered and Electron-Deficient Secondary and Tertiary Amides via Acyl Fluoride Intermediates
-
Amide bond formation is one of the most executed reactions in chemistry and biology. This is largely due to the ubiquity of the amide functional group in biological molecules, natural products and pharmaceutically important drugs. We report here the development of “SuFExAmide”: a new sulfur–fluoride exchange (SuFEx) click chemistry based protocol for the efficient amidation of carboxylic acids via acyl fluoride intermediates. We have developed benzene-1,3-disulfonyl fluoride as a cost effective, powerful and versatile coupling agent, which delivers challenging secondary and tertiary amides in excellent yields from sterically hindered and electron-deficient amines. The straightforward method offers significant benefits over existing protocols in terms of substrate scope, efficiency and ease of operation and is demonstrated by the synthesis of 44 amides, including GNF6702, an antiprotozoal drug candidate. In the majority of cases, the amide products are obtained in high yield without the need for excess reagents or chromatographic purification.

A complete switch in the CpIr(III)-catalyzed paths between C-H olefination and hydroarylation was found to be crucially dependent on the type of directing groups. This dichotomy in product distribution was correlated to the efficiency in attaining syn-coplanarity of olefin-inserted 7-membered iridacycles. Theoretical studies support our hypothesis that the degree of flexibility of this key intermediate modulates the β-H elimination, which ultimately affords the observed chemoselectivity.

- Amidation of aryl halides with isocyanides using a polymer-supported palladium-n-heterocyclic carbene complex as an efficient, phosphine-free and heterogeneous recyclable catalyst
-
The amidation of aryl halides with alkyl/aryl isocyanides to give the corresponding amides using polymer-supported palladium-N-heterocyclic carbene complex (PS-Pd-NHC) as an efficient heterogeneous recyclable catalyst is described. The catalytic system was optimized with respect to various reaction parameters giving excellent yields of the desired products. The catalyst can be easily separated by a simple filtration process and recycled further for up to four consecutive recycle without any loss of activity and selectivity. The protocol is advantageous due to the ease in handling of the catalyst, simple workup procedure, phosphine-free, and effective catalyst recyclability. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart New York.

- A transition-metal-free synthesis of arylcarboxyamides from aryl diazonium salts and isocyanides
-
A transition-metal-free carboxyamidation process, using aryl diazonium tetrafluoroborates and isocyanides under mild conditions, has been developed. This novel conversion was initiated by a base and solvent induced aryl radical, followed by radical addition to isocyanide and single electron transfer (SET) oxidation, affording the corresponding arylcarboxyamide upon hydration of the nitrilium intermediate.

- Pd-catalyzed thiocarbonylation with stoichiometric carbon monoxide: Scope and applications
-
A general protocol for the Pd-catalyzed thiocarbonylation of aryl iodides with stoichiometric carbon monoxide has been established employing a catalytic system composed of Pd(OAc)2 and DPEphos with low catalyst loading (1 mol %). Both electron-rich and -deficient aryl iodides proved effective for these couplings with aryl and alkyl thiols. The choice of the metal ligands and the solvent system was crucial for the efficiency and chemoselectivity of these transformations.

- Ir(III)-catalyzed mild C-H amidation of arenes and alkenes: An efficient usage of acyl azides as the nitrogen source
-
Reported herein is the development of the Ir(III)-catalyzed direct C-H amidation of arenes and alkenes using acyl azides as the nitrogen source. This procedure utilizes an in situ generated cationic half-sandwich iridium complex as a catalyst. The reaction takes place under very mild conditions, and a broad range of sp2 C-H bonds of chelate group-containing arenes and olefins are smoothly amidated with acyl azides without the intervention of the Curtius rearrangement. Significantly, a wide range of reactants of aryl-, aliphatic-, and olefinic acyl azides were all efficiently amidated with high functional group tolerance. Using the developed approach, Z-enamides were readily accessed with a complete control of regio- and stereoselectivity. The developed direct amidation proceeds in the absence of external oxidants and releases molecular nitrogen as a single byproduct, thus offering an environmentally benign process with wide potential applications in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry.
