Herein we report, a single-pot multistep conversion of inactivated carboxylic acids to various N-containing compounds using a common synthetic methodology. The developed methodology rendered the use of carboxylic acids as a direct surrogate of primary amines, for the synthesis of primary ureas, secondary/tertiary ureas, O/S-carbamates, benzoyl ureas, amides, and N-formyls, exploiting the Curtius reaction. This approach has a potential to provide a diversified library of N-containing compounds, starting from a single carboxylic acid, based on the selection of the nucleophile.

The development of CDK and GSK3 inhibitors has been regarded as a potential therapeutic approach, and a substantial number of diverse structures have been reported to inhibit CDKs and GSK-3β in recent years. Only a few molecules have gone through or are currently undergoing clinical trials as CDK and GSK inhibitors. In this paper, we prepared valmerins, a new family containing the tetrahydropyrido[1,2-a]isoindone core. The fused heterocycle was prepared with a straightforward synthesis that was functionalized by a (het)arylurea. Twelve valmerins inhibited the CDK5 and GSK3 with an IC50 100 nM. A semiquantitative kinase scoring was realized, and a cellular screening was done. At the end of our study, we investigated the in vivo potency of one valmerin. Mice exhibited good tolerance to our lead, which proved its efficacy and clearly blocked tumor growth. Valmerins appear also as good candidates for further development as anticancer agents.
Lithium/DTBB-induced reduction of N-alkoxyamides and acyl azides

A series of N-alkoxyamides and N-methoxy-N-methylamides (Weinreb amides) have been subjected to dealkoxylation by reductive cleavage of the N-O bond with lithium powder and a catalytic amount of DTBB (10 mol%) at room temperature, leading to the corresponding amides. When the reaction is performed under reflux conditions, the corresponding alkanes, resulting from a formal deaminocarbonylation process, are obtained. This methodology applied to acyl azides furnished the corresponding primary amides.
