- In Situ Formation of Cationic π-Allylpalladium Precatalysts in Alcoholic Solvents: Application to C-N Bond Formation
-
We report an efficient Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling reaction in alcoholic solvent, in which a low catalyst loading showed excellent performance for coupling aryl halides (I, Br, and Cl) with a broad set of amines, amides, ureas, and carbamates under mild conditions. Mechanistically speaking, in a protic and polar medium, extremely bulky biarylphosphine ligands interact with the dimeric precatalyst [Pd(π-(R)-allyl)Cl]2 to form the corresponding cationic complexes [Pd(π-(R)-allyl)(L)]Cl in situ and spontaneously. The resulting precatalyst further evolves under basic conditions into the corresponding L-Pd(0) catalyst, which is commonly employed for cross-coupling reactions. This mechanistic study highlights the prominent role of alcoholic solvents for the formation of the active catalyst.

- Visible-light-induced direct construction of amide bond from carboxylic acids with amines in aqueous solution
-
A novel visible-light-promoted N-acylation for the synthesis of amides from easily available carboxylic acids with amines in the presence of I2 within 2.5 h in aqueous solution has been developed. Using sunlight as the visible light source greatly reduces the cost of experiments and produces almost no toxic effects. Hence, this study provides an alternative catalytic system for the construction of a wide range of amides with readily available materials. Moreover, the strategy was successfully applied in the preparation of N-(3-(2,6-dimethoxyphenoxy)-7-nitroquinoxalin-2-yl)benzohydrazide, which displayed a signification anti-proliferation effect on A549, MCF-7 and HCT116 cell lines.

-
This work describes the application of pentafluoropyridine (PFP), a cheap commercially available reagent, in the deoxyfluorination of carboxylic acids to acyl fluorides. The acyl fluorides can be formed from a range of acids under mild conditions. We also demonstrate that PFP can be utilized in a one-pot amide bond formation via in situ generation of acyl fluorides. This one-pot deoxyfluorination amide bond-forming reaction gives ready access to amides in yields of ≤94%.

- Cubic CuxZrO100-x as an efficient and selective catalyst for the oxidation of aromatics active methyl, alcohol, and amine groups
-
The local structure of a supported active metal plays a vital role in determining the desired product's selectivity in heterogeneous catalysis. Herein, we have developed a simple protocol for the synthesis of Cu doped on cubic ZrO2 mixed metal oxide catalysts and used it for the selective oxidation of various functional groups. The catalyst was synthesized by varying the wt.% of Cu (1–20%) on ZrO2 by co-precipitation, followed by hydrothermal treatment. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the catalysts confirmed the formation of the cubic phase of ZrO2, and the growth of CuO occurred along the (1 1 1) plane. The microscopy analysis revealed the uniform distribution of Cu on the ZrO2 surface, while XPS analysis confirmed the presence of copper in the +2 oxidation state. The synthesized catalyst with 2 wt% loading of Cu on ZrO2 showed excellent liquid-phase oxidation properties and gave good to best conversion of active methyl groups, alcohols, and amines with high selectivities to corresponding ketones, aldehydes, and amides, respectively, under milder reaction conditions. Furthermore, the synthesized catalyst showed a broader substrate scope for the various substituted active methyl groups, alcohols, and amines with good conversion and selectivity.

- Manganese Catalyzed Direct Amidation of Esters with Amines
-
The transition metal catalyzed amide bond forming reaction of esters with amines has been developed as an advanced approach for overcoming the shortcomings of traditional methods. The broad scope of substrates in transition metal catalyzed amidations remains a challenge. Here, a manganese(I)-catalyzed method for the direct synthesis of amides from a various number of esters and amines is reported with unprecedented substrate scope using a low catalyst loading. A wide range of aromatic, aliphatic, and heterocyclic esters, even in fatty acid esters, reacted with a diverse range of primary aryl amines, primary alkyl amines, and secondary alkyl amines to form amides. It is noteworthy that this approach provides the first example of the transition metal catalyzed amide bond forming reaction from fatty acid esters and amines. The acid-base mechanism for the manganese(I)-catalyzed direct amidation of esters with amines was elucidated by DFT calculations.

- A practical and sustainable protocol for direct amidation of unactivated esters under transition-metal-free and solvent-free conditions
-
In this paper, a NaOtBu-mediated synthesis approach was developed for direct amidation of unactivated esters with amines under transition-metal-free and solvent-free conditions, affording a series of amides in good to excellent yields at room temperature. In particular, an environmentally friendly and practical workup procedure, which circumvents the use of organic solvents and chromatography in most cases, was disclosed. Moreover, the gram-scale production of representative products3a,3wand3auwas efficiently realized by applying operationally simple, sustainable and practical procedures. Furthermore, this approach was also applicable to the synthesis of valuable molecules such as moclobemide (a powerful antidepressant), benodanil and fenfuram (two commercial agricultural fungicides). These results demonstrate that this protocol has the potential to streamline amide synthesis in industry. Meanwhile, quantitative green metrics of all the target products were evaluated, implying that the present protocol is advantageous over the reported ones in terms of environmental friendliness and sustainability. Finally, additional experiments and computational calculations were carried out to elucidate the mechanistic insight of this transformation, and one plausible mechanism was provided on the basis of these results and the related literature reports.

- Nature inspired singlet oxygen generation to access α-amino carbonyl compounds: Via 1,2-acyl migration
-
We have discovered chlorophyll catalyzed 1,2-acyl migration reactions to achieve α-amino carbonyl compounds directly from the enaminones. In general, singlet oxygen is generated during photosynthesis in the photosystem II center. This singlet oxygen can readily react with the unsaturated double bonds present in biomolecules. This reactivity intrigued us to apply this concept towards unsaturated enaminones and others to achieve highly valuable compounds. Indeed, this photosensitizer is very cheap, commercially available, main group metal based and provided excellent efficiency for singlet oxygen mediated chemistry by achieving high turnover number (TON) > 300 with a high turnover frequency (TOF) of 50 h-1. Finally, a combination of DFT calculations and detailed mechanistic experiments provided the exact role of the photosensitizer and clear insights into the reaction.

The direct mechanochemical amidation of esters by ball milling is described. The operationally simple procedure requires an ester, an amine, and substoichiometric KOtBu and was used to prepare a large and diverse library of 78 amide structures with modest to excellent efficiency. Heteroaromatic and heterocyclic components are specifically shown to be amenable to this mechanochemical protocol. This direct synthesis platform has been applied to the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and agrochemicals as well as the gram-scale synthesis of an active pharmaceutical, all in the absence of a reaction solvent.

- N-Ammonium Ylide Mediators for Electrochemical C-H Oxidation
-
The site-specific oxidation of strong C(sp3)-H bonds is of uncontested utility in organic synthesis. From simplifying access to metabolites and late-stage diversification of lead compounds to truncating retrosynthetic plans, there is a growing need for new reagents and methods for achieving such a transformation in both academic and industrial circles. One main drawback of current chemical reagents is the lack of diversity with regard to structure and reactivity that prevents a combinatorial approach for rapid screening to be employed. In that regard, directed evolution still holds the greatest promise for achieving complex C-H oxidations in a variety of complex settings. Herein we present a rationally designed platform that provides a step toward this challenge using N-ammonium ylides as electrochemically driven oxidants for site-specific, chemoselective C(sp3)-H oxidation. By taking a first-principles approach guided by computation, these new mediators were identified and rapidly expanded into a library using ubiquitous building blocks and trivial synthesis techniques. The ylide-based approach to C-H oxidation exhibits tunable selectivity that is often exclusive to this class of oxidants and can be applied to real-world problems in the agricultural and pharmaceutical sectors.

- N-pyridinylbenzamides: an isosteric approach towards new antimycobacterial compounds
-
A series of N-pyridinylbenzamides was designed and prepared to investigate the influence of isosterism and positional isomerism on antimycobacterial activity. Comparison to previously published isosteric N-pyrazinylbenzamides was made as an attempt to draw structure–activity relationships in such type of compounds. In total, we prepared 44 different compounds, out of which fourteen had minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra below 31.25?μg/ml, most promising being N-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzamide (23) and N-(6-chloropyridin-2-yl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzamide (24) with MIC?=?7.81?μg/ml (26?μm). Five compounds showed broad-spectrum antimycobacterial activity against M. tuberculosis H37Ra, M. smegmatis and M. aurum. N-(pyridin-2-yl)benzamides were generally more active than N-(pyridin-3-yl)benzamides, indicating that N-1 in the parental structure of N-pyrazinylbenzamides might be more important for antimycobacterial activity than N-4. Marginal antibacterial and antifungal activity was observed for title compounds. The hepatotoxicity of title compounds was assessed in vitro on hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2, and they may be considered non-toxic (22 compounds with IC50 over 200?μm).

The decarboxylative/oxidative amidation of aryl α-ketocarboxylic acids with 5-aryl-3-nitroisoxazole-4-carboxylates and substituted dinitrobenzenes under oxidative aqueous conditions to afford N-aryl amides is described. The reaction is suggested to proceed via a radical pathway in which a benzoyl nitroxyl radical, the key intermediate formed from reaction between nitroarene and benzoyl radical from glyoxalic acid, couples with hydroxyl radical from water to produce amide. Mechanistic insight allowed the scope of the strategy to be expanded to the synthesis of amides via reaction between aryl α-ketocarboxylic acids and nitroso compounds.

The development of catalysts capable of catalyzing amidation of esters with amines to construct amides under mild conditions is of great importance. Compared to aliphatic amines, the direct catalytic amidation of esters with less nucleophilic aromatic amines is rather difficult. Employing simple lanthanide tris (amide) complexes Ln[N (SiMe3)2]3(μ-Cl)Li (THF)3 as the catalysts, it was found a broad range of aromatic amines and esters were efficiently converted into various amides in good yields under mild conditions. A plausible mechanism for this transformation was experimentally supported as starting from an amide exchange reaction between the lanthanide tris (amide) complex and the substrate amine.

- Reversible small molecule inhibitors of MAO A and MAO B with anilide motifs
-
Background: Ligands consisting of two aryl moieties connected via a short spacer were shown to be potent inhibitors of monoamine oxidases (MAO) A and B, which are known as suitable targets in treatment of neurological diseases. Based on this general blueprint, we synthesized a series of 66 small aromatic amide derivatives as novel MAO A/B inhibitors. Methods: The compounds were synthesized, purified and structurally confirmed by spectroscopic methods. Fluorimetric enzymological assays were performed to determine MAO A/B inhibition properties. Mode and reversibility of inhibition was determined for the most potent MAO B inhibitor. Docking poses and pharmacophore models were generated to confirm the in vitro results. Results: N-(2,4-Dinitrophenyl)benzo[d][1,3]dioxole-5-carboxamide (55, ST-2043) was found to be a reversible competitive moderately selective MAO B inhibitor (IC50 = 56 nM, Ki = 6.3 nM), while N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)benzamide (7, ST-2023) showed higher preference for MAO A (IC50 = 126 nM). Computational analysis confirmed in vitro binding properties, where the anilides examined possessed high surface complementarity to MAO A/B active sites. Conclusion: The small molecule anilides with different substitution patterns were identified as potent MAO A/B inhibitors, which were active in nanomolar concentrations ranges. These small and easily accessible molecules are promising motifs, especially for newly designed multitargeted ligands taking advantage of these fragments.

- Graphene oxide-catalyzed CSp3–H activation of methylarenes in aqueous medium: A unified metal-free access to amides and benzimidazoles
-
Graphene oxide (GO)-catalyzed selective synthesis of amides via CSp3–H activation of methylarenes and consequent C–N bond formation with anilines under aqueous medium has been described. Oxygen functionality allied with GO surface played a dual role both as acid catalyst and oxidizing agent to some extent. However, GO has a copious effect on the reaction, shown by a high TOF value with TBHP as co-oxidant. The decisive role of carboxylic acid functional groups on GO nanosheets in this metal-free strategy has been confirmed and was monitored by various analytic techniques viz. Fourier transform-infrared, UV–Vis, Raman and XPS. A plausible mechanism was proposed by control experiments and by the isolation of the intermediate. Over-oxidation of methylarenes was not detected, and high recyclability of the carbocatalyst with its heterogeneous behavior facilitated the isolation and purification of the desired products. We have further explored the utility of this process for the chemoselective synthesis of benzimidazoles.

- Highly Chemoselective, Transition-Metal-Free Transamidation of Unactivated Amides and Direct Amidation of Alkyl Esters by N-C/O-C Cleavage
-
The amide bond is one of the most fundamental functional groups in chemistry and biology and plays a central role in numerous processes harnessed to streamline the synthesis of key pharmaceutical and industrial molecules. Although the synthesis of amides is one of the most frequently performed reactions by academic and industrial scientists, the direct transamidation of tertiary amides is challenging due to unfavorable kinetic and thermodynamic contributions of the process. Herein, we report the first general, mild, and highly chemoselective method for transamidation of unactivated tertiary amides by a direct acyl N-C bond cleavage with non-nucleophilic amines. This operationally simple method is performed in the absence of transition metals and operates under unusually mild reaction conditions. In this context, we further describe the direct amidation of abundant alkyl esters to afford amide bonds with exquisite selectivity by acyl C-O bond cleavage. The utility of this process is showcased by a broad scope of the method, including various sensitive functional groups, late-stage modification, and the synthesis of drug molecules (>80 examples). Remarkable selectivity toward different functional groups and within different amide and ester electrophiles that is not feasible using existing methods was observed. Extensive experimental and computational studies were conducted to provide insight into the mechanism and the origins of high selectivity. We further present a series of guidelines to predict the reactivity of amides and esters in the synthesis of valuable amide bonds by this user-friendly process. In light of the importance of the amide bond in organic synthesis and major practical advantages of this method, the study opens up new opportunities in the synthesis of pivotal amide bonds in a broad range of chemical contexts.

- The use of Cr (CO)6 as an alternative CO source in Pd-catalyzed C-N bond formation: Synthesis of benzamides
-
An efficient strategy for the synthesis of benzamides from acetamides and aryl iodides using 1?mol% Pd (OAc)2 as catalyst and Cr (CO)6 as CO-precursor is described. This new synthetic methodology displays high functional group tolerance on both substrates and avoids the need for ligands, reducing agents, or other additives. The corresponding products were obtained in good to excellent yields at atmospheric pressure under mild reaction conditions.

- Diverse Oxidative C(sp2)-N Bond Cleavages of Aromatic Fused Imidazoles for Synthesis of α-Ketoamides and N-(pyridin-2-yl)arylamides
-
An efficient and chemoselective C(sp2)-N bond cleavage of aromatic imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine molecules is developed. A broad scope of amide compounds such as α-ketoamides and N-(pyridin-2-yl)arylamides are afforded as the final products in up to quantitative yields. Diverse C-N bond cleavages are controlled by the oxidative species used in this transformation, with various amide products afforded in a chemoselective fashion. A preliminary study indicated that some α-ketoamides exhibit anti-Tobacco Mosaic Virus activity for potential use in plant protection.

- Copper Catalyzed Oxidative C-C Bond Cleavage of 1,2-Diketones: A Divergent Approach to 1,8-Naphthalimides, Biphenyl-2,2′-dicarboxamides, and N-Heterocyclic Amides
-
We report here a simple and efficient copper catalyzed oxidative C-C bond cleavage of stable aromatic cyclic-fused and acyclic 1,2-diketones to deliver amides and imides in high yields. This newly developed protocol provides an excellent tool to transform structurally different 1,2-diketones into different products under the same reaction conditions. The key synthetic features of this methodology are the formation of 1,8-naphthalimides and biphenyl-2,2′-dicarboxamide motifs in high yields. The fluorescent studies of 1,8-naphthalimide derivatives were also carried out in order to show the potential application of these scaffolds.

- Copper-Catalyzed Tandem Reactions of 2-Amine-[1,3,5]triazines with Nitriles
-
Copper-catalyzed intermolecular annulation of 2-amine-[1,3,5]triazines and aryl nitriles for the synthesis of [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazines via N-C bond formation and oxidative N-N coupling [oxidative 3 + 2 cyclization] is presented. A wide range of aryl nitriles, including electron-rich benzonitriles, electron-poor benzonitriles, 2-cyanothiophene, and 4-cyanopyridine, were all functionalized with 2-amine-[1,3,5]triazines. Furthermore, amidation of 2-amine-[1,3,5]triazines via Cu-catalyzed C-CN bond cleavage of phenylacetonitriles is also demonstrated. The reaction occurred in moderate to satisfactory yields and tolerated alkyl- or aryl-substituted 2-amine-[1,3,5]triazines. Aniline, aminopyridine, and aminopyrimidine also afforded the desired products.

- Ruthenium-Catalyzed Reductive Arylation of N-(2-Pyridinyl)amides with Isopropanol and Arylboronate Esters
-
A new three-component reductive arylation of amides with stable reactants (iPrOH and arylboronate esters), making use of a 2-pyridinyl (Py) directing group, is described. The N-Py-amide substrates are readily prepared from carboxylic acids and PyNH2, and the resulting N-Py-1-arylalkanamine reaction products are easily transformed into the corresponding chlorides by substitution of the HN-Py group with HCl. The 1-aryl-1-chloroalkane products allow substitution and cross-coupling reactions. Therefore, a general protocol for the transformation of carboxylic acids into a variety of functionalities is obtained. The Py-NH2 by-product can be recycled.

- Singlet oxygen mediated one pot synthesis of N-pyridinylamides via oxidative amidation of aryl alkyl ketones
-
An environmental friendly, efficient protocol has been realized for the synthesis of N-pyridinylamides via copper catalyzed oxidative amidation of aryl alkyl ketones with 2-aminopyridines. This one pot protocol involves chemo selective cleavage of C (O)–C bond in the presence of singlet oxygen. The reaction conditions are simple, tolerates wide range of substrates and the products were formed in good to excellent yields. This method offers a moderate improvement over the earlier successful attempts in generating N-pyridinylamides.

- A straightforward TBHP-mediated synthesis of 2-amidobenzoic acids from 2-arylindoles and their antimicrobial activity
-
A simple and highly efficient strategy has been developed for the synthesis of 2-amidobenzoic acids through the tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP)-mediated oxygenation and sequential ring opening of 2-arylindoles in a one-pot fashion under metal-free aerobic conditions. The developed synthetic protocol is operationally simple, tolerates a wide range of functional groups, and is amenable to the gram-scale. Radical trapping experiments revealed that the reaction involves a radical pathway. The synthesized compounds (2a-s) were tested for in vitro antimicrobial activity. Among all screened compounds, 2d showed the maximum antibacterial activity against P. aerugunosa (ZOI = 17 mm, MIC = 32 μg mL-1) and compounds 2d and 2p showed the maximum (32 μg mL-1) antifungal activity against A. flavus and C. albicans.

- Nickel/Briphos-Catalyzed Direct Transamidation of Unactivated Secondary Amides Using Trimethylsilyl Chloride
-
Direct transamidation of secondary amides was developed via nickel catalysis. In the presence of trimethylsilyl chloride and manganese, Ni(diglyme)Cl2 with a Briphos ligand efficiently promoted the transamidation of N-aryl benzamide derivatives with primary amines to afford the corresponding secondary amides in moderate to good yields. Primary amines bearing electron-donating groups gave higher yields of the transamidation products.

- Metal-free synthesis of aminomethylated imidazoheterocycles: dual role of tert-butyl hydroperoxide as both an oxidant and a methylene source
-
A novel and efficient aminomethylation approach has been developed for the regioselective functionalization of imidazoheterocycles under metal-free conditions. A wide range of imidazoheterocycles and 2/4-aminoazaheterocycles successfully provided corresponding aminomethylated imidazoheterocycles in moderate to excellent (33-80%) yields. The isotopic labelling study suggested that TBHP played a dual role as both an oxidant and a methylene source in this transformation. The developed protocol follows a radical pathway which is supported by radical trapping experiments.

- SNS-Ligands for Ru-Catalyzed Homogeneous Hydrogenation and Dehydrogenation Reactions
-
A detailed study of literature-known and novel S-containing pincer-type ligands for ruthenium-catalyzed homogeneous hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions was carried out. The scope and limitations of these catalysts were carefully investigated, and it was shown that simple bench-stable SNS-Ru complexes can be used to facilitate the hydrogenation of a variety of different substrates at a maximum H2 pressure of 20 bar under operationally simple, easy to scale up, glovebox-free conditions by using starting materials and reagents that do not require any special purification prior to use. It was also shown that such complexes can be used to catalyze the dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and amines to get amides as well as for the dehydrogenative dimerization of alcohols to esters.
