Tandem Photoredox Catalysis: Enabling Carbonylative Amidation of Aryl and Alkylhalides

We report a new visible-light-mediated carbonylative amidation of aryl, heteroaryl, and alkyl halides. A tandem catalytic cycle of [Ir(ppy)2(dtb-bpy)]+ generates a potent iridium photoreductant through a second catalytic cycle in the presence of DIPEA, which productively engages aryl bromides, iodides, and even chlorides as well as primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl iodides. The versatile in situ generated catalyst is compatible with aliphatic and aromatic amines, shows high functional-group tolerance, and enables the late-stage amidation of complex natural products.

Tunable Ligand Effects on Ruthenium Catalyst Activity for Selectively Preparing Imines or Amides by Dehydrogenative Coupling Reactions of Alcohols and Amines

Selective dehydrogenative synthesis of imines from a variety of alcohols and amines was developed by using the ruthenium complex [RuCl2(dppea)2] (6 a: dppea=2-diphenylphosphino-ethylamine) in the presence of catalytic amounts of Zn(OCOCF3)2 and KOtBu, whereas the selective dehydrogenative formation of amides from the same sources was achieved by using another ruthenium complex, [RuCl2{(S)-dppmp}2] [6 d: (S)-dppmp=(S)-2-((diphenylphosphenyl)methyl)pyrrolidine], in the presence of catalytic amounts of Zn(OCOCF3)2 and potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (KHMDS). Our previously reported ruthenium complex, [Ru(OCOCF3)2(dppea)2] (8 a), was the catalyst precursor for the imine synthesis, whereas [Ru(OCOCF3)2{(S)-dppmp}2] (8 d), which was derived from the treatment of 6 d with Zn(OCOCF3)2 and characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis, was the pre-catalyst for the amide formation. Control experiments revealed that the zinc salt functioned as a reagent for replacing chloride anions with trifluoroacetate anions. Plausible mechanisms for both selective dehydrogenative coupling reactions are proposed based on a time-course study, Hammett plot, and deuterium-labeling experiments.

Copper-Catalyzed Carbonylative Synthesis of Aliphatic Amides from Alkanes and Primary Amines via C(sp3)-H Bond Activation

Amides are important intermediates and building blocks in organic synthesis. Among the known preparation procedures, aminocarbonylation is an interesting and powerful tool. However, most of the studies were focused on noble metal-catalyzed synthesis of ar

Recyclable hypervalent iodine(III) reagent iodosodilactone as an efficient coupling reagent for direct esterification, amidation, and peptide coupling

A hypervalent iodine(III) reagent plays a novel role as an efficient coupling reagent to promote the direct condensation between carboxylic acids and alcohols or amines to provide esters, macrocyclic lactones, amides, as well as peptides without racemization. The regeneration of iodosodilactone (1) can also be readily achieved. The intermediate acyloxyphosphonium ion C from the activation of a carboxylic acid is thought to be involved in the present esterification reaction.

One-pot synthesis of amides by aerobic oxidative coupling of alcohols or aldehydes with amines using supported gold and base as catalysts

Synthesis of amides by aerobic oxidative coupling of alcohols or aldehydes with amines via intermediate formation of methyl esters is highly efficient and selective when using a catalytic system comprised of supported gold nanoparticles and added base in methanol.
