- A facile and versatile electro-reductive system for hydrodefunctionalization under ambient conditions
-
A general electrochemical system for reductive hydrodefunctionalization is described, employing the inexpensive and easily available triethylamine (Et3N) as a sacrificial reductant. This protocol is characterized by facile operation, sustainable conditions, and exceptionally wide substrate scope covering the cleavage of C-halogen, N-S, N-C, O-S, O-C, C-C and C-N bonds. Notably, the selectivity and capability of reduction can be conveniently switched by simple incorporation or removal of an alcohol as a co-solvent.

- Chemoselective Reduction of Tertiary Amides by 1,3-Diphenyl disiloxane (DPDS)
-
A convenient procedure for the chemoselective reduction of tertiary amides at room temperature in the presence of air and moisture using 1,3-diphenyldisiloxane (DPDS) is developed. The reaction conditions tolerate a significant number of functional groups including esters, nitriles, secondary amides, carbamates, sulfoxides, sulfones, sulfonyl fluorides, halogens, aryl-nitro groups, and arylamines. The conditions reported are the mildest to date and utilize EtOAc, a preferred solvent given its excellent safety profile and lower environmental impact. The ease of setup and broad chemoselectivity make this method attractive for organic synthesis, and the results further demonstrate the utility of DPDS as a selective reducing agent.

- Palladium-Catalyzed Aminocarbonylation of Aryl Halides with N,N-Dialkylformamide Acetals
-
We developed a protocol for the palladium-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of aryl halides using less-toxic formamide acetals as bench-stable aminocarbonyl sources under neutral conditions. Various aryl (including heteroaryl) halides reacted with N,N-dialkylformamide acetals in the presence of a catalytic amount of tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0)-chloroform adduct and xantphos to give the corresponding aromatic carboxamides at 90–140 °C without any activating agents or bases in up to quantitative chemical yield. This protocol was applied to aryl bromides, aryl iodides, and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, as well as to relatively less-reactive aryl chlorides. A wide range of functionalities on the aromatic ring of the substrates were tolerated under the aminocarbonylation conditions. The catalytic aminocarbonylation was used to prepare the insect repellent N,N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide as well as a synthetic intermediate of the dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor triazinate.

- Ni-Catalyzed Reductive Cyanation of Aryl Halides and Phenol Derivatives via Transnitrilation
-
Herein, we report a Ni-catalyzed reductive coupling for the synthesis of benzonitriles from aryl (pseudo)halides and an electrophilic cyanating reagent, 2-methyl-2-phenyl malononitrile (MPMN). MPMN is a bench-stable, carbon-bound electrophilic CN reagent that does not release cyanide under the reaction conditions. A variety of medicinally relevant benzonitriles can be made in good yields. Addition of NaBr to the reaction mixture allows for the use of more challenging aryl electrophiles such as aryl chlorides, tosylates, and triflates. Mechanistic investigations suggest that NaBr plays a role in facilitating oxidative addition with these substrates.

- Facile Access to Amides from Oxygenated or Unsaturated Organic Compounds by Metal Oxide Nanocatalysts Derived from Single-Source Molecular Precursors
-
Oxidative amidation is a valuable process for the transformation of oxygenated organic compounds to valuable amides. However, the reaction is severely limited by the use of an expensive catalyst and limited substrate scope. To circumvent these limitations, designing a transition-metal-based nanocatalyst via more straightforward and economical methodology with superior catalytic performances with broad substrate scope is desirable. To resolve the aforementioned issues, we report a facile method for the synthesis of nanocatalysts NiO and CuO by the sol-gel-assisted thermal decomposition of complexes [Ni(hep-H)(H2O)4]SO4 (SSMP-1) and [Cu(μ-hep)(BA)]2 (SSMP-2) [hep-H = 2-(2-hydroxylethyl)pyridine; BA = benzoic acid] as single-source molecular precursors (SSMPs) for the oxidative amidation of benzyl alcohol, benzaldehyde, and BA by using N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as the solvent and as an amine source, in the presence of tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant, at T = 80 °C. In addition to nanocatalysts NiO and CuO, our previously reported Co/CoO nanocatalyst (CoNC), derived from the complex [CoII(hep-H)(H2O)4]SO4 (A) as an SSMP, was also explored for the aforementioned reaction. Also, we have carefully investigated the difference in the catalytic performance of Co-, Ni-, and Cu-based nanoparticles synthesized from the SSMP for the conversion of various oxygenated and unsaturated organic compounds to their respective amides. Among all, CuO showed an optimum catalytic performance for the oxidative amidation of various oxygenated and unsaturated organic compounds with a broad reaction scope. Finally, CuO can be recovered unaltered and reused for several (six times) recycles without any loss in catalytic activity.

In this work, the mixture of formamide and 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (cyanuric chloride or TCT) is introduced as a new amidating agent in Pd-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of aryl halides. In the presence of a catalytic amount of palladium and TCT/formamide reagent, a range of aryl halides (X = Cl, Br, I) were converted into amides efficiently in N,N-dimethylformamide at 120 °C. The 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine/formamide mixed reagent was found to be an efficient amidating agent in Pd-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of aryl halides. In the presence of this reagent and a catalytic amount of Pd, a range of amides were synthesized by using aryl halides.

- Potassium tert-Butoxide-Mediated Amine Acyl Exchange Reaction of N,N-Disubstituted Formamides with Aromatic Carbonyl Derivatives via Sequential C-N Bond Cleavage/Formation: An Approach to Aromatic Amides

A novel potassium tert-butoxide-mediated amine acyl exchange of N,N-disubstituted formamides with aromatic carbonyl derivatives in a sequential C-N bond cleavage/formation process leading to aromatic amides is described. This methodology tolerates a wide range of aromatic carbonyl compounds, including aromatic aldehydes, acyl chlorides, unactivated esters, and acid anhydrides. The usage of inexpensive and readily available reagents, broad substrate scope, and the simple, mild (50°C) and transition metal-free conditions make this protocol very practical. In addition, a plausible reaction mechanism is proposed on the basis of experimental observations.

- Easy access to amides through aldehydic C-H bond functionalization catalyzed by heterogeneous Co-based catalysts
-
A novel synthesis strategy for amides by oxidative amidation of aldehydes is developed using a heterogeneous Co-based catalyst. The Co composite was prepared by simple pyrolysis of a Co-containing MOF, to obtain well-dispersed Co nanoparticles enclosed by carbonized organic ligands. The catalysts were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), N2 physical adsorption, atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The small Co nanoparticles embedded in the N-doped carbons were highly dispersed with an average size of ca. 7 nm. The Co@C-N materials exhibited significantly enhanced catalytic activity in the oxidative amidation of aldehydes in comparison to those of commercial sources. A series of amides can be easily obtained in good to excellent yields. It was found that the reaction proceeded via radicals under mild conditions, and the carbonyl group in the amide product was from the aldehyde. Moreover, the catalyst could be easily separated by using an external magnetic field and reused several times without significant loss in catalytic efficiency under the investigated conditions.

-
Carboxylic acids were heated at 150 °C in DMF in the presence of 1.25 equiv of thionyl chloride to give corresponding N,N-dimethylamides in good yields. Tandem chlorination and amidation reactions occurred in the one-pot procedure. Dicarboxylic acids needed prolonged reaction time to produce bisamides in good yields. Some benzamides were efficiently converted into corresponding 1,2-diaryl-1,2-diketones (benzils) under acyloin condensation conditions in the presence of 4,4′-di-tert-butylbiphenyl (DBB) in THF. Ultrasonic irradiation effectively accelerates the reaction, but it is not critical. However, the presence of DBB is fatal to the reaction. Although a few synthetic methods for benzils from benzoic acids have been reported so far, this method is one of the most convenient and highly reproducible procedures.

- Practical access to amines by platinum-catalyzed reduction of carboxamides with hydrosilanes: Synergy of dual Si-H groups leads to high efficiency and selectivity
-
The synergetic effect of two Si-H groups leads to efficient reduction of carboxamides to amines by platinum catalysts under mild conditions. The rate of the reaction is dependent on the distance of two Si-H groups; 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane (TMDS) and 1,2-bis(dimethylsilyl)benzene are found to be an effective reducing reagent. The reduction of amides having other reducible functional groups such as NO2, CO2R, CN, CdC, Cl, and Br moieties proceeds with these groups remaining intact, providing a reliable method for the access to functionalized amine derivatives. The platinum-catalyzed reduction of amides with polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) also proceeds under mild conditions. The reaction is accompanied by automatic removal of both platinum and silicon wastes as insoluble silicone resin, and the product is obtained by simple extraction. A mechanism involving double oxidative addition of TMDS to a platinum center is discussed.
