Here we solve a long-standing challenge of the site-selective modification of secondary amides and present a simple two-step, metal-free approach to selectively modify a particular secondary amide in molecules containing multiple primary and secondary amides. Density functional theory (DFT) provides insight into the activation of C-N bonds. This study encompasses distinct chemical advances for late-stage modification of peptides thus harnessing the amides for the incorporation of various functional groups into natural and synthetic molecules.

In this study, we investigate the amino and alkoxycarbonylation reaction between various substituted aryl halides, benzyl iodides, and iodocyclohexane with different types of amines and alcohols in the absence of carbon monoxide gas and ligands. Similar reactions are carried out at high temperatures, in the presence of appropriate ligands, stoichiometric amounts of bases, and gaseous carbon monoxide, which endanger the health of organic chemists. We present a novel method that does not utilize ligands, bases, gaseous CO, and special conditions. This procedure is a redox reaction carried out by new economic nano Ni/g-C3N4at room temperature and under visible light. Mo(CO)6was used toin situgenerate CO, to resolve the problems caused by the use of CO gas. This protocol has the ability to be used on a gram scale by using a continuous flow reactor.

Imidazolium salts have been effectively employed as suitable acyl transfer agents in amidation and esterification in organic synthesis. The weak acyl C(O)-C imidazolium bond was exploited to generate acyl electrophiles, which further react with amines and alcohols to afford amides and esters. The broad substrate scope of anilines and benzylic amines and base-promoted conditions are the benefits of this route. Interestingly, phenol, benzylic alcohols, and a biologically active alcohol can also be subjected to esterification under the optimized conditions.
Base-catalyzed retro-Claisen condensation: A convenient esterification of alcohols via C-C bond cleavage of ketones to afford acylating sources

, p. 29502 - 29508 (2014/08/05)
The base-catalyzed esterification of alcohols via retro-Claisen condensation has been demonstrated for the first time. A variety of alcohols including aryl- and heteroaryl methanols as well as aliphatic ones underwent efficient acylation to give the ester products in reasonable to good yields upon isolation. Not only conventional 1,3-diketones but also strong electron-withdrawing group containing acetophenones could serve as the acylating suppliers. The synthetic protocol is operationally simple and adaptable to a broad substrate scope. It complements the existed esterification via the retro-Claisen condensation, and enlarges this benign synthetic methodology.
Pt, Pd and Au nanoparticles supported on a DNA-MMT hybrid: Efficient catalysts for highly selective oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes, acids and esters

supporting information, p. 5213 - 5215 (2013/06/27)
Novel DNA-MMT hybrid supported metal nanoparticle catalysts, such as Pt/DNA-MMT, Pd/DNA-MMT, Au/DNA-MMT, were prepared for application in highly selective aerobic oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes, acids and esters, respectively. Taking advantage of the water-soluble reversibility of these catalysts, all the transformations could be performed smoothly in water and reuse of the catalysts has also been accomplished by a very simple phase separation process.

A very mild, one-pot, and expedient protocol for the conversion of alcohols and phenols into their corresponding benzoates using imidazole and benzoyl peroxide as a novel reagent is described.
5,5′-Dimethyl-3,3′-azoisoxazole as a new heterogeneous azo reagent for esterification of phenols and selective esterification of benzylic alcohols under Mitsunobu conditions
Iranpoor, Nasser,Firouzabadi, Habib,Khalili, Dariush
supporting information; experimental part, p. 4436 - 4443 (2010/11/05)
5,5′-Dimethyl-3,3′-azoisoxazole is used as a new efficient heterogeneous azo reagent for the highly selective esterification of primary and secondary benzylic alcohols and phenols with aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids via Mitsunobu protocols. The reaction is highly selective for primary benzylic alcohols versus secondary ones, aliphatic alcohols and also phenols. The isoxazole hydrazine byproduct can be simply isolated by filtration and recycled to its azoisoxazole by oxidation.

Hypertension is a lifestyle-related disease which often leads to serious conditions such as heart disease and cerebral hemorrhage. Angiotensin II (Ang II) plays an important role in regulating cardiovascular homeostasis. Consequently, antagonists that block the interaction of Ang II with its receptors are thought to be effective in the suppression of hypertension. In this study, we searched for plant compounds that had antagonist-like activity toward Ang II receptors. From among 435 plant samples, we found that EtOH extract from the resin of sweet gum Liquidambar styraciflua strongly inhibited Ang II signaling. We isolated benzyl benzoate and benzyl cinnamate from this extract and found that those compounds inhibited the function of Ang II in a dose-dependent manner without cytotoxicity. An in vivo study showed that benzyl benzoate significantly suppressed Ang II-induced hypertension in mice. In addition, we synthesized more than 40 derivatives of benzyl benzoate and found that the meta-methyl and 3-methylbenzyl 2′-nitrobenzoate derivatives showed about 10-fold higher activity than benzyl benzoate itself. Thus, benzyl benzoate, its derivatives, and benzyl cinnamate may be useful for reducing hypertension.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a highly efficient catalyst for the acylation of a variety of alcohols, phenols and amines with acid chlorides or acid anhydrides under solvent free conditions. Primary, secondary, tertiary, allylic and benzylic alcohols, diols and phenols with electron donating or withdrawing substituents can be easily acylated in good to excellent yield.
