Conversion of a wide range of N-Boc amides to aryl ketones was achieved with Grignard reagents via chemoselective C(O)-N bond cleavage. The reactions proceeded under catalyst-free conditions with different aryl, alkyl, and alkynyl Grignard reagents. α-Ketoamide was successfully converted to aryl diketones, while α,β-unsaturated amide underwent 1,4-addition followed by C(O)-N bond cleavage to provide diaryl propiophenones. N-Boc amides displayed higher reactivity than Weinreb amides with Grignard reagents. A broad substrate scope, excellent yields, and quick conversion are important features of this methodology.

A nickel/N-heterocyclic carbene catalytic system has been established for decarbonylative borylation of amides with B2nep2by C?N bond activation. This transformation shows good functional-group compatibility and can serve as a powerful synthetic tool for late-stage borylation of amide groups in complex compounds. More importantly, as a key intermediate, the structure of an acyl nickel complex was first confirmed by X-ray analysis. Furthermore, the decarbonylative process was also observed. These findings confirm the key mechanistic features of the acyl C?N bond activation process.
