(equation presented) Amidation of a variety of hydrocarbons with PhI=NTs catalyzed by ruthenium and manganese meso-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrins 1 and 2 afforded N-substituted amides in up to 92% yields with good to excellent substrate conversions. By employing catalyst 2, exceptionally high turnovers (up to 2600) were achieved, and the amidations can be effected by directly using PhI(OAc)2/NH2R as amidating reagents; in the case of R = COCF3 a direct amination was realized in up to 90% yield.
