A unique approach in mechanosynthesis, joining solid-state NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, and theoretical calculations, is employed for the first time to study the mechanism of the formation of the C- N amide bond using EDC?HCl as a coupling reagent. It has been proved that EDC?HCl, which in the crystal lattice exists exclusively in the cyclic form (X-ray data), easily undergoes transformation to a pseudocyclic stable intermediate in reaction with carboxylic acid forming a low-melt phase (differential scanning calorimetry, solid-state NMR). The obtained intermediate is reactive and can be further used for synthesis of amides in reaction with appropriate amines.

We report an efficient Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling reaction in alcoholic solvent, in which a low catalyst loading showed excellent performance for coupling aryl halides (I, Br, and Cl) with a broad set of amines, amides, ureas, and carbamates under mild conditions. Mechanistically speaking, in a protic and polar medium, extremely bulky biarylphosphine ligands interact with the dimeric precatalyst [Pd(π-(R)-allyl)Cl]2 to form the corresponding cationic complexes [Pd(π-(R)-allyl)(L)]Cl in situ and spontaneously. The resulting precatalyst further evolves under basic conditions into the corresponding L-Pd(0) catalyst, which is commonly employed for cross-coupling reactions. This mechanistic study highlights the prominent role of alcoholic solvents for the formation of the active catalyst.

A visible-light-promoted and simple iron salt-catalyzed N-arylation was achieved efficiently under external photosensitizer-free conditions. Arylboronic acids and bench-stable dioxazolones were used for this cross-coupling reaction. This reaction features high reactivity, wide substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, simple operation procedure, and mild reaction conditions. Preliminary mechanistic investigations were conducted to support a radical pathway. This method may contribute to shift the paradigm of iron-catalyzed C-N bond construction and nitrene transfer chemistry.

A magnetite-reduced graphene oxide-supported CuO nanocomposite (rGO/Fe3O4-CuO) was preparedviaa facile chemical method and characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-vis spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM), and thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. The catalytic activity of the rGO/Fe3O4-CuO nanocomposite was probed in the direct oxidative amidation reaction of methylarenes with free amines. Various aromatic and aliphatic amides were prepared efficiently at room temperature from cheap raw chemicals usingtert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as a “green” oxidant and low-toxicity TBAI in water. This method combines the oxidation of methylarenes and amide bond formation into a single operation. Moreover, the synthesized nanocomposites can be separated from the reaction mixtures using an external magnet and reused in six consecutive runs without a noticeable decrease in the catalytic activity.
