A straightforward, mild and cost-efficient synthesis of various arylamides in water was accomplished using versatile benzotriazole chemistry. Acylation of various amines was achieved in water at room temperature as well as under microwave irradiation. The developed protocol unfolds the synthesis of amino acid aryl amides, drug conjugates and benzimidazoles. The environmentally friendly synthesis, short reaction time, simple workup, high yields, mild conditions and free of racemization are the key advantages of this protocol.

Cancer is a chronic degenerative disease considered one of the most important causes of death worldwide. In this context, a series of dual-protected amino acid derivatives was synthesized and evaluated as potential novel anticancer agents. The 40 derivatives were prepared in up to three reaction steps. The cytotoxic activities were screened in vitro against a panel of tumor and non-tumor cells using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Among the synthesized derivatives, three of them showed promising activity against cancer cells with half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) ranging between 1.7-6.1 μM. The most promising derivative, bearing both a lipophilic N-alkyl diamine moiety and a protected amino acid scaffold showed a selectivity index of 3.4 towards tumor cells. The N-alkyl diamine moiety seems to play a crucial role in the enhancement of the anticancer activity. On the other hand, the incorporation of an amino acid scaffold resulted in increase in the selectivity towards cancer cell lines.

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease with high incidence and growing drug-resistant rates. In an attempt to develop new antitubercular agents, 35 compounds were synthesized, most of them bearing a carbamate and enantiopure amino acid moiety. These compounds had their activity evaluated toward a Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain (ATCC 27294) and cytotoxicity against fibroblast MRC-5 cells (ATCC CCL-171). Three of the prepared derivatives presented a good antimicrobial inhibition and two of them a moderate cytotoxicity. The lipophilicity seems to play a vital role in the cell growth activity, with best results for the derivatives with a higher logP.

Bai, Jianfei,Zambron, Bartosz K.,Vogel, Pierre
supporting information, p. 604 - 607 (2014/04/03)
An efficient method has been developed for the direct amidification of carboxylic acids via sulfinylamides preformed in situ by the reaction of pure amines with prop-2- ene-1-sulfinyl chloride. The method can be applied to aliphatic acids, including pivalic acid, aromatic acids, and primary and secondary amines. It is compatible with acids bearing unprotected alcohol, phenol, and ketone moieties and applicable to the synthesis of peptides. It does not induce their a-epimerization.
Direct synthesis of amides from carboxylic acids and amines using B(OCH2CF3)3
Lanigan, Rachel M.,Starkov, Pavel,Sheppard, Tom D.
, p. 4512 - 4523 (2013/06/05)
B(OCH2CF3)3, prepared from readily available B2O3 and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, is as an effective reagent for the direct amidation of a variety of carboxylic acids with a broad range of amines. In most cases, the amide products can be purified by a simple filtration procedure using commercially available resins, with no need for aqueous workup or chromatography. The amidation of N-protected amino acids with both primary and secondary amines proceeds effectively, with very low levels of racemization. B(OCH2CF3)3 can also be used for the formylation of a range of amines in good to excellent yield, via transamidation of dimethylformamide.

Hu, Shenshen,Zhang, Long,Li, Jiuyuan,Luo, Sanzhong,Cheng, Jin-Pei
experimental part, p. 3347 - 3352 (2011/08/03)
The first primary aminocatalytic direct cross-aldol reaction of acetaldehyde is presented. Among the various vicinal diamines screened, the L-tert-leucine derivative 1c in conjunction with (H4SiW 12O40)0.25 was identified as the optimal catalyst; good catalytic activity (up to 99% yield in 4 h), and high enantioselectivities (up to 92% ee) were achieved for a range of donors, including aromatic aldehydes and isatin derivatives. Aqueous acetaldehyde solution and paraldehyde can be conveniently applied in this system.
Carboxamidation of carboxylic acids with 1-tert-butoxy-2-tert-butoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydroisoquinoline (BBDI) without bases
Saito, Yukako,Ouchi, Hidekazu,Takahata, Hiroki
experimental part, p. 11129 - 11135 (2009/04/11)
Formation of carboxamides of a variety of carboxylic acids with the coupling reagent BBDI is described. This procedure permits a one pot and simple operation without the need of any bases and no base was?required for even use of amine hydrochlorides. In addition, an approach to BBDI-catalyzed carboxamidation is examined.
A new chiral synthesis of a bicyclic enedione containing a seven-membered ring mediated by a combination of chiral amine and Bronsted acid

Several chiral amines bearing a heterocyclic moiety such as pyrrolidine, piperazine or tetrazole were prepared from l-phenylalanine. The enantioselectivity of the intramolecular asymmetric aldol reaction mediated by a combination of the synthetic chiral a
Efficient transamidation of primary carboxamides by in situ activation with N,N-dialkylformamide dimethyl acetals

Two protocols for the transamidation of primary amides with primary and secondary amines, forming secondary and tertiary amides, respectively, are described. Both processes employ N,N-dialkylformamide dimethyl acetals for primary amide activation, producing N-acyl-N,N-dialkylformamidines as intermediates, as widely documented in the literature. Although the latter intermediates react irreversibly with amines by amidinyl transfer, we show that in the presence of certain Lewis acid additives efficient acyl transfer occurs, providing new and useful methods for amide exchange. In one protocol for transamidation, the N-acyl-N,N-dialkylformamidine intermediates are purified by flash-column chromatography and the purified intermediates are then treated with an amine (typically, 2.5 equiv) in the presence of scandium triflate (10 mol %) in ether to form in high yields the products of transamidation. In a second procedure, N-acyl-N,N-dialkylformamidines are generated in situ and, without isolation, are subjected to transamidation in the presence of zirconium chloride (0.5 equiv) and an amine (typically 2 equiv). A variety of different primary amides and amines are found to undergo efficient transamidation using the methods described.
