The expansion of molecular diversity beyond what nature can produce is a fundamental objective in chemical sciences. Despite the rich chemistry of boron-containing heterocycles, the 1,3-dioxa-5-aza-2,4,6-triborinane (DATB) ring system, which is characterized by a six-membered B3NO2 core, remains elusive. Here, we report the synthesis of m-terphenyl-templated DATB derivatives, displaying high stability and peculiar Lewis acidity arising from the three suitably arranged boron atoms. We identify a particular utility for DATB in the dehydrative amidation of carboxylic acids and amines, a reaction of high academic and industrial importance. The three boron sites are proposed to engage in substrate assembly, lowering the entropic cost of the transition state, in contrast with the operative mechanism of previously reported catalysts and amide coupling reagents. The distinct mechanistic pathway dictated by the DATB core will advance not only such amidations, but also other reactions driven by multisite activation.

A visible-light promoted photoredox catalysed, green one-pot approach for the amidation of carboxylic acids with amines has been developed for the synthesis of diverse aliphatic and aromatic amides. The proposed strategy is extendable also to biologically active amides and could represent a low-cost alternative to the common synthetic pathways. The developed strategy may hold great potential for a comprehensive display of biologically interesting peptide synthesis and amino acid modification.

Ion-supported Ph3P, 4-(diphenylphosphino)benzyltrimethylammonium bromide (IS-Ph3P), could be used for the facile amidation of a wide range of carboxylic acids with amines in the presence of bromotrichloromethane to provide the corresponding amides in good yields. In the present reaction, the desired amides were obtained in good yields with high purity by simple extraction of the reaction mixture with diethyl ether or chloroform and subsequent removal of the solvent from the extract. Moreover, ion-supported Ph3PO (IS-Ph3PO), which was a co-product derived from IS-Ph3P in the present reductive condensation, was recovered in high yield and could be reduced to IS-Ph3P for reuse in the same amidation of carboxylic acid.
