Paragraph 0068-0069, (2022/03/18)
Methods of protecting fruit crops from flying insect pests and of repelling flying insects using aromatic amide compounds are disclosed. The methods apply the compounds to various surfaces, such as the fruit crops, the ground or structures adjacent to the fruit crops, or an object, article, human skin or animal. The compounds have the formula RxC6Hy—C(═O)—N(Cy), where RxC6Hy is a substituted phenyl group, each R group is independently C1-C6 alkyl, substituted C1-C4 alkyl, (substituted) C6-C10 aryl, C1-C4 alkoxy, C6-C10 aryloxy, halogen, nitro, cyano, cyanate, isocyanate, nitroso, C1-C4 alkylthio, phenylthio, (halogen-substituted) C1-C4 alkylsulfonyl, phenylsulfonyl, tolylsulfonyl, amino, mono- or di-C1-C4 alkylamino, diphenylamino, di-C1-C4 alkylamido, formyl, C2-C7 acyl, or C1-C6 alkoxycarbonyl; x is an integer of 1 to 5; x+y=5; Cy is a C2-C8 (substituted) alkadiyl, a C4-C6 (substituted) alkenediyl, or a (substituted) diyl of the formula —(CH2CH2)—O—(CH2CH2)—, —(CH2CH2)—NR′—(CH2CH2)— or —(CH2CH2)—S—(CH2CH2)— that, along with the amide N atom, forms a non-aromatic cyclic group; and R′ is C1-C6 alkyl, substituted C1-C4 alkyl, (substituted) C6-C10 aryl, or (substituted) benzyl.

Herein, we develop a mild method for N-acylation of primary and secondary amines with α-diketones induced by ultraviolet (UV) light. Forty-six examples with various functional groups are explored at room temperature with irradiation by three 26 W UV lamps (350-380 nm). The yield reaches 97%. The gram scale experiment product yield is 76%. Moreover, this system can be applied to the synthesis of several amino acid derivatives. Mechanistic studies show that benzoin is generated in situ from benzil under UV irradiation.

We report that the nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction of aliphatic and (hetero)aromatic amides by organolithium reagents proceeds quickly (20 s reaction time), efficiently, and chemoselectively with a broad substrate scope in the environmentally responsible cyclopentyl methyl ether, at ambient temperature and under air, to provide ketones in up to 93 % yield with an effective suppression of the notorious over-addition reaction. Detailed DFT calculations and NMR investigations support the experimental results. The described methodology was proven to be amenable to scale-up and recyclability protocols. Contrasting classical procedures carried out under inert atmospheres, this work lays the foundation for a profound paradigm shift of the reactivity of carboxylic acid amides with organolithiums, with ketones being straightforwardly obtained by simply combining the reagents under aerobic conditions and with no need of using previously modified or pre-activated amides, as recommended.
