A facile and effective approach toward the synthesis of primary amides from carboxylic acids has been developed. In the presence of 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine, a combination of ammonium thiocyanate and potassium carbonate led to the rapid conversion of carboxylic acids into the corresponding amides within five minutes grinding at room temperature. The use of ammonium thiocyanate as the amine source is unprecedented and exclusive formation of primary amides is observed only under the liquid-assisted grinding conditions.

Here, a photocatalytic deoxygenative amidation protocol using readily available amine-boranes and carboxylic acids is described. This approach features mild conditions, moderate-to-good yields, easy scale-up, and up to 62 examples of functionalized amides with diverse substituents. The synthetic robustness of this method was also demonstrated by its application in the late-stage functionalization of several pharmaceutical molecules.

Palladium-catalyzed hydroaminocarbonylation of alkenes for the synthesis of primary amides has long been an elusive aim. Here, we report an efficient catalytic system which enables inexpensive NH4Cl to be utilized as a practical alternative to gaseous ammonia for the palladium-catalyzed alkene-hydroaminocarbonylation reaction. Through appropriate choice of the palladium precursors and ligands, either branched or linear primary amides can be obtained in good yields with good to excellent regioselectivities. Primary mechanistic studies were conducted and disclosed that electrophilic acylpalladium species were capable of capturing the NH2-moiety from ammonium salts to form amides in the presence of CO with NMP as a base.
