Air-stable Bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) Zirconium Perfluorooctanesulfonate as an Efficient and Recyclable Catalyst for the Synthesis of N-substituted Amides

Bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) zirconium perfluorooctanesulfonate is an air-stable and water-tolerant Lewis acid. This complex exhibited good thermal stability and high solubility in polar organic solvents. The compound showed relatively strong acidity, with an acid strength of 0.8Ho≤3.3, and high catalytic efficiency for the synthesis of N-substituted amides via the reaction of carboxylic acids with amines, the Ritter reaction of nitriles with alcohols, and the amination of alcohols with amides. Moreover, the complex had good reusability. This catalytic system affords a simple and efficient way to synthesize N-substituted amides.

Manganese(III) acetate catalyzed oxidative amination of benzylic C(sp3)-H bonds with nitriles

Mn-Catalyzed oxidative amination of benzylic C(sp3)-H bonds with nitriles is disclosed, which enables the synthesis of a broad range of secondary amides in moderate to excellent yields under mild conditions. The interaction between Mn(iii) and DDQ facilitates the oxidation and makes it highly efficient and selective.

Method for preparing amide from aryl methane derivative and nitrile

The invention provides a simple and efficient method for directly preparing an amide compound from an aryl methane derivative and nitrile. In the method, manganese triacetate dihydrate is used as a catalyst, and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone(DDQ) is used as an oxidizing agent. The method has the characteristics that raw materials are cheap and easy to obtain, the source of the nitrile is wide, reaction conditions are mild, the applicability is wide and the like. The method solves the problems that ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) and a fluorine agent which are used by a method for directly synthesizing amide by using aryl methane and nitrile compounds are hard to treat, atomic economy is poor, the source of the nitrile is narrow and the like.

Bis-sulfamyl imines: Potent substrates for asymmetric additions of arylboroxines under rhodium catalysis

Bis-sulfamyl imines are shown to be potentially ideal substrates for rhodium-catalysed asymmetric additions of arylboron nucleophiles as they show: (i) near perfect enantioselectivities (11 examples, 98-99+% ee), (ii) good to excellent diastereoselectivities (10-32:1 rac:meso), and (iii) high functional group tolerance in removal of the low molecular weight protecting group via mild heating in aqueous pyridine.

The ritter reaction under truly catalytic bronsted acid conditions

Simple organic acids like 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (DNBSA) catalyze the Ritter reaction of secondary benzylic alcohols giving rise to the corresponding N-benzylacetamides in usually high yields. Reactions can be conducted without exclusion of oxygen and without the need of dry solvents. With tertiary α,α-dimethylbenzylic alcohols a different pathway involving a formal dimerization reaction takes place under the acid-catalytic conditions used. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2007.

Iron(III) perchlorate - A novel reagent in synthesis

Iron (III) perchlorate in acetonitrile as the solvent converts alkohols and alkyl halides to acetamide derivatives, cleaves glycols and converts α-hydroxy acids to aldehydes or ketones.
