An external oxidant-free protocol for the generation of isocyanates from hydroxamic acids assisted by trivalent phosphine under mild electrochemical conditions was reported. The process started with the anodic oxidation of hydroxamic acids, followed by reacting with phosphine to form corresponding alkoxyphosphoniums and subsequent rearrangement with the release of tri-substituted phosphine oxide as the driving force to give isocyanates, which were trapped by N-based nucleophiles to produce various ureas. This method provides a broadly applicable procedure to access isocyanate intermediates under mild electrochemical conditions.

A NiH-catalyzed thioether-directed cyclometalation strategy is developed to enable remote methylene C-H bond amidation of unactivated alkenes. Due to the preference for five-membered nickelacycle formation, the chain-walking isomerization initiated by the NiH insertion to an alkene can be terminated at the γ-methylene site remote from the alkene moiety. By employing 2,9-dibutyl-1,10-phenanthroline as the ligand and dioxazolones as the reagent, the amidation occurs at the γ-C(sp3)-H bonds to afford the amide products in up to 90% yield (>40 examples) with remarkable regioselectivity (up to 24:1 rr).

The Lossen rearrangement is a classic process for transforming activated hydroxamic acids into isocyanate under basic or thermal conditions. In the current report we disclosed a consecutive Lossen rearrangement/transamidation reaction in which unactivated hydroxamic acids were converted into N-substituted formamides in a one-pot manner under catalyst- and additive-free conditions. One feature of this novel transformation is that the formamide plays triple roles in the reaction by acting as a readily available solvent, a promoter for additive-free Lossen rearrangement, and a source of the formyl group in the final products. Acyl groups other than formyl could also be introduced into the product when changing the solvent to other low molecular weight aliphatic amide derivatives. The solvent-promoted Lossen rearrangement was better understood by DFT calculations, and the intermediacy of isocyanate and amine was supported well by experiments, in which the desired products were obtained in excellent yields under similar conditions. Not only monosubstituted formamides were synthesized from hydroxamic acids, but also N,N-disubstituted formamides were obtained when secondary amines were used as precursors.

A variety of aromatic and aliphatic hydroxamic acids were converted to the corresponding primary amines via base-mediated rearrangement. This rearrangement could proceed with less than 1 equiv. of K2CO3 in polar solvents under thermal conditions with no external reagents. This rearrangement has several features including no external activating agents needed for promoting the rearrangement, less than one equivalent of a base is sufficient for the reaction, and a clean reaction in which only carbon dioxide is produced as a by-product. A self-propagating mechanism via an isocyanate intermediate is proposed and elementary reaction steps, namely, chain propagation reactions are supported by experiments.

A gold-catalyzed regioselective [3+2] cycloaddition of ynamides with 1,4,2-dioxazoles was developed and offers a novel approach to obtain highly functionalized oxazoles under mild reaction conditions. 1,4,2-Dioxazole was found to act as an efficient N-acyl nitrene equivalent to trigger a facile generation of α-imino gold-carbene intermediate through the elimination of a ketone.

A one-pot synthesis of primary amines from carboxylic acids through a Lossen rearrangement of hydroxamic acid derivatives, which were in situ generated by the reaction of carboxylic acids with O-trimethylsilylhydroxylamine (NH2OTMS) and carbonyl diimidazole (CDI, 1.5 equiv) in dimethyl sulfoxide at room temperature, has been achieved. This one-pot method could be applied to various carboxylic acids such as aromatic, heteroaromatic, aliphatic, and optically active substrates.

Coupling of carboxylic acids with O-2-methylprenyl hydroxylamine provided O-protected hydroxamic acids, which could be deprotected by treatment with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in dichloromethane giving volatile by-products. Protected hydroxamic acids could be N-arylated or alkylated followed by deprotection to give N-substituted hydroxamic acids. Georg Thieme Verlag KG · Stuttgart · New York.

experimental part, p. 927 - 935 (2010/05/01)
Activation of carboxylic acids with N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole followed by the reaction with anhydrous or aqueous hydroxylamine hydrochloride was demonstrated to be an operationally simple method for the synthesis of hydroxamic acids in good yield and high purity after aqueous workup. The potential by-product, N,O-diacylhydroxylamine, is cleanly transformed to hydroxamic acid in these reaction conditions.

[Chemical Equation Presented] Carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) was found to mediate the Lossen rearrangement of various hydroxamic acids to isocyanates. This process is experimentally simple and mild, with imidazole and CO 2 being the sole stoichiometric byproduct. Significant for large-scale application, the method avoids the use of hazardous reagents and thus represents a green alternative to standard processing conditions for the Curtius and Hofmann rearrangements.
