- FTIR spectroscopic study of hydrogen bonding and solvent induced frequency shifts of N-tert-butylacetamide
-
This paper reports the results of FTIR study of N-tert-butylacetamide in carbon tetrachloride solution and in presence of seven different molecules as H acceptors. The spectroscopic characteristics for NH?O hydrogen bonded complexes are given. Also, the equilibrium constants for 1:1 complex formation, at 25 °C were determined by using IR measurements. Frequency shifts of carbonyl stretching vibration ν(CO) of N-tert-butylacetamide in the same organic H acceptors was also investigated. The wavenumbers of carbonyl stretching vibration ν(CO) were correlated with the solvent acceptor number (AN) and the linear solvation energy relationships (LSERs).

- Surface ligands enhance the catalytic activity of supported Au nanoparticles for the aerobic α-oxidation of amines to amides
-
The catalytic aerobic α-oxidation of amines in water is an atom economic and green alternative to current methods of amide synthesis. The reaction uses O2 as terminal oxidant, avoids hazardous reactants and gives water as the only byproduct. Here we report that the catalytic activity of silica-supported Au nanoparticles for the aerobic α-oxidation of amines can be improved by tethering pyridyl ligands to the support. In contrast, immobilization of thiol groups on the material gives activities comparable to Au supported on bare silica. Our studies indicate that the ligands affect the electronic properties of the Au nanoparticles and thereby determine their ability to activate O2 and mediate C-H cleavage in the amine substrate. The reaction likely proceeds via an Au catalyzed β-hydride elimination enabled by backdonation from electron-rich metal to the orbital. O2, which is also activated on electron-rich Au, acts as a scavenger to remove H from the metal surface and regenerate the active sites. The mechanistic understanding of the catalytic conversion led to a new approach for forming C-C bonds α to the N atoms of amines.

- Chemoselective formation of C–N bond in wet acetonitrile using amberlyst-15(H) as a recyclable catalyst
-
An economically efficient and environmentally benign protocol for the chemoselective one-pot synthesis of diversely N-substituted amides has been developed in good yield through the reaction of benzylic secondary alcohols as well as aliphatic tertiary alcohols and alkyl/aryl nitriles. Commercially available Amberlyst-15(H) has been utilized at 80 °C as an air-stable and reusable heterogeneous inexpensive solid acid catalyst without any anhydrous and inert environment. The attractive features of the present synthetic protocol are mild reaction conditions, short reaction time, excellent chemoselectivity, high atom economy and tolerance of various sensitive moieties.

- New half-sandwich (η6-p-cymene)ruthenium(II) complexes with benzothiazole hydrazone Schiff base ligand: Synthesis, structural characterization and catalysis in transamidation of carboxamide with primary amines
-
Few half-sandwich (η6-p-cymene) ruthenium(II) complexes supported by benzothiazole hydrazone Schiff bases were synthesized. The new complexes possess the general formulae [Ru(η6-p-cymene)(L)Cl] (1-3) (L = salicyl((2-(benzothiazol-2-yl)hydrazono)methylphenol) (SAL-HBT), 2-((2-(benzothiazol-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)-6 methoxyphenol) (VAN-HBT) or naphtyl-2-((2-(benzothiazol-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl phenol) (NAP-HBT). All compounds were fully studied by analytical, spectroscopic techniques (IR, NMR) and also by mass spectrometry. The solid state structure of the complex 3 reveals the coordination of p-cymene moieties with ruthenium(II) in a three-legged piano-stool geometry along with benzothiazole hydrazone Schiff base ligand in a monobasic bidentate fashion. The catalytic properties of the complexes were screened in transamidation of primary amide with amines after optimization with respect to solvent, substituents, time and catalyst loading. The results show that the complex 3 is the most efficient catalyst for the transamidation of carboxamides with amines.

- CoFe2O4?SiO2-NH-βCD-BF3 as a supramolecular nanocomposite: Synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity
-
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.

- Silicon-Mediated Coupling of Carbon Monoxide, Ammonia, and Primary Amines to Form Acetamides
-
For the first time, a direct transformation of CO, NH3, and primary amines into acetamides, mediated by a main-group element (silicon), is reported. Starting point is the selective deoxygenative reductive homocoupling of two CO molecules by the Fc-bis(silylene) 1 a (Fc=ferrocendiyl) as a reducing agent, which forms the ferrocendiyl-bridged disila(μ-O)(μ-CCO)ketene intermediate 2 a. Exposing 2 a to NH3 (1 bar, 298 K) and benzylamine yields the Fc-disiloxanediamines [Fc(RHNSi-O-SiNHR)] 5 a (R=H) and 5 b (R=benzyl) under release of the respective acetamides H3CC(O)NHR, as confirmed by 13C-isotope-labelling experiments. IR and NMR studies of the reaction reveal a four-step mechanism involving an N-silylated carboxamide that can be isolated and fully characterized. The striking reaction mechanism for this unprecedented transformation involves a facile Si?C bond cleavage and ammonolysis of a Si?O bond, and has been demonstrated experimentally and by quantum-chemical calculations.

- Air-stable Bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) Zirconium Perfluorooctanesulfonate as an Efficient and Recyclable Catalyst for the Synthesis of N-substituted Amides
-
Bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) zirconium perfluorooctanesulfonate is an air-stable and water-tolerant Lewis acid. This complex exhibited good thermal stability and high solubility in polar organic solvents. The compound showed relatively strong acidity, with an acid strength of 0.8Ho≤3.3, and high catalytic efficiency for the synthesis of N-substituted amides via the reaction of carboxylic acids with amines, the Ritter reaction of nitriles with alcohols, and the amination of alcohols with amides. Moreover, the complex had good reusability. This catalytic system affords a simple and efficient way to synthesize N-substituted amides.

The attractive features of this new catalytic methodology include its sustainability, facile work-up procedure, economic viability, and biodegradability. The SCIL catalyst was characterized using infrared spectroscopy, wide-angle X-ray scattering analysis, and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The catalyst could be reused six times without significant loss in activity. Furthermore, no chromatographic separations were needed to obtain the desired products.

- Homoleptic zirconium amidates: Single source precursors for the aerosol-assisted chemical vapour deposition of ZrO2
-
We report the development of a true single source precursor (i.e. without any need for an exogenous source of oxygen) for the growth of zirconia thin films by aerosol-assisted chemical vapour deposition (AACVD) using an original family of zirconium(iv) amidate derivatives, which are easily prepared by protonolysis of [Zr(NMe2)4] with the free amide pro-ligands. In all but one case the reactions resulted in the isolation of the corresponding homoleptic eight-coordinate zirconium(iv)tetrakis(amidato) derivatives. Three of these species along with a tris(amidato)dimethylamido zirconium(iv) derivative have been characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The materials potential of the homoleptic compounds was identified through the application of design criteria derived from consideration of the existing knowledge base relating to the pyrolysis of wholly organic amides. In this manner the thermal decomposition of the homoleptic derivatives benefits from facile, molecularly imposed pyrolysis pathways, which provide for the privileged generation of volatile small molecule by-products and the production of contaminant-free solid oxide material. Thermogravimetric analysis, in conjunction with NMR spectroscopic analysis of the volatile products resulting from their thermal decomposition, indicated the potential of the homoleptic species as exquisite single source precursors to ZrO2 at moderate temperatures. The compound bearing both N- and C-iso-propyl substituents was, thus, applied as a true single source precursor under ambient pressure AACVD conditions. The resultant films, deposited on either SiO2-coated glass or quartz substrates, are smooth and comprise small and densely packed crystalline particulates that are shown by XRD to be primarily cubic ZrO2. Compositional analysis by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) revealed that the oxygen delivered, and the decomposition pathway provided, by the amidate ligand structure yields ZrO2 films which, though slightly sub-stoichiometric (ZrO1.8-1.9), contain undetectable levels of carbon incorporation.

-
A One-Pot tandem Schmidt–Ritter process for the synthesis of amides has been developed using the super acid as catalyst. The in situ generated aryl/aliphatic nitriles from the reaction of aldehydes and sodium azide in the presence of TfOH and AcOH (Schmidt reaction) react with suitable alcohol (Ritter reaction) to give the amides. For the first time we observed that during the Schmidt process N-acylimides were generated along with nitriles, interestingly these N-acylimides also participated in the Ritter reaction.

- Magnetically separable γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles: An efficient catalyst for acylation of alcohols, phenols, and amines using sonication energy under solvent free condition
-
This paper reports a facile synthesis of magnetically separable iron oxide (γ-Fe2O3) nanoparticles using thermolysis method. The structural and morphological study of the synthesized γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles was carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission gun-scanning electron microscopy (FEG-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrum (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques. The electron microscopy reveals that the γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles have spherical morphology with a particle size in the range of 40-100 nm. The XPS study confirmed the Fe is in +3 oxidation state. The synthesized γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles have been used as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the organic transformation between phenols, alcohols, and amines with acetic anhydride under sonication using mild reaction conditions. Various electrons withdrawing and electrons donating substrates show an excellent yield of desired products with the advantage of magnetic separation and reusability of γ-Fe2O3 nanocatalyst.

The conversion of a wide range of primary and secondary aliphatic and a few arylamine hydrochloride salts to their corresponding acetamides with trimethyl orthoacetate is described. Mechanistic studies using NMR and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry techniques indicate these reactions proceed via an O-methylimidate intermediate that undergoes in situ demethylation by chloride, affording the corresponding acetamides. Synthetically, this reaction represents a practical, high-yielding protocol with a simple workup for the rapid conversion of amine hydrochloride salts to acetamides.

- Generation and trapping of ketenes in flow
-
Ketenes were generated by the thermolysis of alkoxyalkynes under flow conditions, and then trapped with amines and alcohols to cleanly give amides and esters. For a 10 min reaction time, temperatures of 180, 160, and 140 °C were required for >95% conversion of EtO, iPrO, and tBuO alkoxyalkynes, respectively. Variation of the temperature and flow rate with inline monitoring of the output by IR spectroscopy allowed the kinetic parameters for the conversion of 1-ethoxy-1-octyne to be easily estimated (Ea = 105.4 kJ/mol). Trapping of the in-situ-generated ketenes by alcohols to give esters required the addition of a tertiary amine catalyst to prevent competitive [2+2] addition of the ketene to the alkoxyalkyne precursor.

- Synthesis of secondary amides from N-Substituted amidines by tandem oxidative rearrangement and isocyanate elimination
-
In this work an efficient tandem process transforming N-substituted amidines into secondary amides has been described. The process involves N-acylurea formation by reaction of the substrate with bis(acyloxy)(phenyl)-λ3-iodane followed by isocyanate elimination. The periodinane reagents are obtained from the commercially available phenyl-iodine(III) diacetate [PhI(OAc)2, (PIDA)] by ligand exchange with carboxylic acids. The N-substituted amidine substrates are easily synthesized from readily available nitriles. The method is applicable for secondary amide synthesis, based on both aliphatic and (hetero)aromatic amines, including challenging amides consisting of sterically hindered acids and amines. Moreover, the protocol allows one to combine steric bulk with electron deficiency in the target amides (aniline based). Such compounds are difficult to synthesize efficiently based on classical condensation reactions involving carboxylic acids and amines. Overall, the synthetic protocol transforms a nitrile into a secondary amide in both aliphatic and (hetero)aromatic systems.

- Catalytic properties and acidity of 1,2-benzenedisulfonimide and some of its derivatives. An experimental and computational study
-
1,2-Benzenedisulfonimide (1) has previously been found to be an excellent and, importantly, safe Br?nsted acid catalyst. In this work we present the results of a search for derivatives of 1 that are more acidic and effective. Instead of blindly synthesizing a series of analogues, we have carried out a screening process in which the pKa of 1 and a set of its derivatives were calculated. The calculated pKa values were confirmed experimentally by carrying out determination through potentiometric titrations of some of the compounds: 1, 4-methyl and 4-nitro derivatives of 1. The calculations indicated that the dinitro and 4-nitro derivatives are among the best candidates for the synthesis. The latter was obtained in good yields and tested as a catalyst. Results were excellent as the reactions took place more quickly and at lower temperatures in all cases, and in a number of cases it was even possible to reduce the amount of catalyst.

- Immobilization of Candida cylindracea lipase on poly lactic acid, polyvinyl alcohol and chitosan based ternary blend film: Characterization, activity, stability and its application for N-a
-
The ecofriendly ternary blend polymer film was prepared from the chitosan (CH), polylactic acid (PLA) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Immobilization of Candida cylindracea lipase (CCL) was carried out on ternary blend polymer via entrapment methodology. The ternary blend polymer and immobilized biocatalyst were characterized by using N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm, SEM, FTIR, DSC, and (%) water content analysis through Karl Fischer technique. Biocatalyst was then subjected for the determination of practical immobilization yield, protein loading and specific activity. Immobilized biocatalyst was further applied for the determination of biocatalytic activity for N-acylation reactions. Various reaction parameters were studied such as effect of immobilization support (ratio of PLA:PVA:CH), molar ratio (dibutylamine:vinyl acetate), solvent, biocatalyst loading, time, temperature, and orbital speed rotation. The developed protocol was then applied for the N-acylation reactions to synthesize several industrially important acetamides with excellent yields. Interestingly, immobilized lipase showed fivefold higher catalytic activity and better thermal stability than the crude extract lipase CCL. Furthermore various kinetic and thermodynamic parameters were studied and the biocatalyst was efficiently recycled for four successive reuses. It is noteworthy to mention that immobilized biocatalyst was stable for period of 300 days.

The oxidation of a series of aryl tert-butyl sulfoxides (4-X-C 6H4SOC(CH3)3: 1, X = OCH 3; 2, X = CH3; 3, X = H; 4, X = Br) photosensitized by 3-cyano-N-methylquinolinium perchlorate (3-CN-NMQ+) has been investigated by steady-state irradiation and nanosecond laser flash photolysis (LFP) under nitrogen in MeCN. Products deriving from the C-S bond cleavage in the radical cations 1+?-4+? have been observed in the steady-state photolysis experiments. By laser irradiation, the formation of 3-CN-NMQ? (λmax = 390 nm) and 1 +?-4+? (λmax = 500-620 nm) was observed. A first-order decay of the sulfoxide radical cations, attributable to C-S bond cleavage, was observed with fragmentation rate constants (k f) that decrease by increasing the electron donating power of the arylsulfinyl substituent from 1.8 × 106 s-1 (4 +?) to 2.3 × 105 s-1 (1 +?). DFT calculations showed that a significant fraction of the charge is delocalized in the tert-butyl group of the radical cations, thus explaining the small substituent effect on the C-S bond cleavage rate constants. Via application of the Marcus equation to the kinetic data, a very large value for the reorganization energy (λ = 62 kcal mol-1) has been calculated for the C-S bond scission reaction in 1+?-4 +?.

Air-stable and crystalline N-acyl DBN tetraphenylborate salts have been synthesized from 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN) and the corresponding acyl chloride in the presence of sodium tetraphenylborate. The salts have been shown to be effective N-acylating agents, reacting with primary amines, secondary amines, and sulfonamides to form the corresponding N-acylated products in good yields. The DBN hydrotetraphenylborate byproduct can be conveniently removed by filtration, providing pure N-acylated products without the need for further purification. The N-acyl DBN tetraphenylborate salts are attractive alternatives to acyl halides as they can be stored in air without decomposition, avoid the production of free acid during acylation reactions, and can be used under more forcing thermal conditions.

- SO42-/CexZr1-xO2-catalyzed synthesis of N-tert-butylamides from various nitriles under solvent-free conditions
-
The synthesis of N-tert-butylamides using SO4 2-/CexZr1-x O2 catalysts under solvent-free conditions is reported. The methodology has several advantages such as reusability of the catalyst, solvent-free conditions, easy workup, and comparable yield of N-tert-butylamides. A variety of aliphatic, aromatic, and acid-sensitive substrates give high to moderate yields of the corresponding N-tert-butylamides. Surface acidities of the catalysts were correlated with the results obtained. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a modified Ritter reaction on SO42-/CexZr1-x O2 using tert-butyl acetate as carbocationic source.

- Synthesis of 3,3-dimethylglutamic acid derivatives as DPP-IV inhibitors and evaluation of their chemical stability
-
A novel five-step synthesis of Boc-3,3-dimethylglutamic acid α-ethyl ester 11 is reported. All the steps are high yielding and simple to carry out. By use of the 3,3-dimethylglutamic acid building block, we successfully discovered a novel class of DPP-IV inhibitors, Glu-Pro-Nitrile dipeptide mimics 2, with high potency (IC50 40 nM). The consequence of 3,3-dimethyl substituent on the rate of intramolecular cyclization between N-terminal amine and 5-position amide bond in different buffer solutions was also evaluated.
