α,β-Unsaturated primary amides are important intermediates and building blocks in organic synthesis. Herein, we report a ligand-free iron-catalyzed hydroaminocarbonylation of alkynes using NH4HCO3 as the ammonia source, enabling the highly efficient and regioselective synthesis of linear α,β-unsaturated primary amides. Various aromatic and aliphatic alkynes are transformed into the desired linear α,β-unsaturated primary amides in good to excellent yields. Further studies show that using NH4HCO3 as the ammonia source is key to obtain good yields and selectivity. The utility of this route is demonstrated with the synthesis of linear α,β-unsaturated amides including vanilloid receptor-1 antagonist TRPV-1.

Cu(II)-catalyzed reaction of α-keto thioesters with trimethylsilyl azide (TMSN3) proceeds with the transformation of the thioester group into urea through C-C and C-S bond cleavages, constituting a practical and straightforward synthesis of N-acylureas. When diphenyl phosphoryl azide (DPPA) is used instead as the azide source in an aqueous environment, primary amides are formed via substitution of the thioester group. The reactions are proposed to proceed through Curtius rearrangement of the initially formed α-keto acyl azide to generate an acyl isocyanate intermediate, which reacts further with an additional amount of azide or water and rearranges to afford the corresponding products. To demonstrate the potentiality of the method, one-step syntheses of pivaloylurea and isovaleroylurea, displaying anticonvulsant activities, have been carried out.

α,β-Unsaturated primary amides have found numerous applications in drug development, organic materials, and polymer sciences. However, the catalytic synthesis of α,β-unsaturated primary amides via carbonylation of alkynes has long been an elusive endeavor. Here, we report a novel palladium-catalyzed hydroaminocarbonylation of alkynes with NH4Cl as the amine source, enabling the highly chemo- and regioselective synthesis of α,β-unsaturated primary amides. A variety of alkynes, including aromatic alkynes, aliphatic alkynes, terminal alkynes, internal alkynes, as well as diynes with various functional groups, react well. The method turns the parasitic noncoordination ability of ammonium salts into a strategic advantage, enabling the gram-scale reaction to be performed in the presence of 0.05 mol % of catalyst with excellent selectivity.
