C?H amination and amidation by catalytic nitrene transfer are well-established and typically proceed via electrophilic attack of nitrenoid intermediates. In contrast, the insertion of (formal) terminal nitride ligands into C?H bonds is much less developed and catalytic nitrogen atom transfer remains unknown. We here report the synthesis of a formal terminal nitride complex of palladium. Photocrystallographic, magnetic, and computational characterization support the assignment as an authentic metallonitrene (Pd?N) with a diradical nitrogen ligand that is singly bonded to PdII. Despite the subvalent nitrene character, selective C?H insertion with aldehydes follows nucleophilic selectivity. Transamidation of the benzamide product is enabled by reaction with N3SiMe3. Based on these results, a photocatalytic protocol for aldehyde C?H trimethylsilylamidation was developed that exhibits inverted, nucleophilic selectivity as compared to typical nitrene transfer catalysis. This first example of catalytic C?H nitrogen atom transfer offers facile access to primary amides after deprotection.

Paragraph 0008-0009; 0063-0064, (2022/03/04)
The present invention generally relates to a process for selective and direct activation and subsequent amidation of aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids to afford an amide R3CONR1R2. That the process is capable of delivering gaseous or low-boiling point amines provides a major advantage over existing methodologies, which involves an intermediate of triacyloxyborane-amine complex [(R3CO2)3—B—NHR1R2]. This procedure readily produces primary, secondary, and tertiary amides, and is compatible with the chirality of the acid and amine involved. The preparation of known pharmaceutical molecules and intermediates has also been demonstrated.

Catalytic aerobic oxidation of primary amines to the amides, using the precatalyst [Ru(COD)(L1)Br2] (1) bearing an annulated π-conjugated imidazo[1,2-a][1,8]naphthyridine-based mesoionic carbene ligand L1, is disclosed. This catalytic protocol is distinguished by its high activity and selectivity, wide substrate scope and modest reaction conditions. A variety of primary amines, RCH2NH2 (R = aliphatic, aromatic and heteroaromatic), are converted to the corresponding amides using ambient air as an oxidant in the presence of a sub-stoichiometric amount of KOtBu in tBuOH. A set of control experiments, Hammett relationships, kinetic studies and DFT calculations are undertaken to divulge mechanistic details of the amine oxidation using 1. The catalytic reaction involves abstraction of two amine protons and two benzylic hydrogen atoms of the metal-bound primary amine by the oxo and hydroxo ligands, respectively. A β-hydride transfer step for the benzylic C-H bond cleavage is not supported by Hammett studies. The nitrile generated by the catalytic oxidation undergoes hydration to afford the amide as the final product. This journal is

New water-soluble ruthenium(ii)- and ruthenium(iv)-dmso complexes [RuCl2(dmso)2(NH3)(CH3CN)] (1), [RuCl2(dmso)3(CH3CN)] (2), and [RuCl2(dmso)3(NH3)]·PF6·Cl (3) have been synthesized and characterized using elemental analyses, IR, 1H and 31P NMR, and electronic absorption spectroscopy. The molecular structures of complexes 1-3 were determined crystallographically. The reactivity of complexes 1-3 has been tested for aqueous-phase nitrile hydration at 60 °C in air, and good efficiency and selectivity are shown for the corresponding amide derivatives. Best performance is achieved with complex 3. Amide conversions of 56-99% were obtained with a variety of aromatic, alkyl, and vinyl nitriles. The reaction tolerated hydroxyl, nitro, bromo, formyl, pyridyl, benzyl, alkyl, and olefinic functional groups. Amides were isolated by simple decantation from the aqueous-phase catalyst. A catalyst loading down to 0.0001 mol% was examined and turnover numbers as high as 990?000 were observed. The catalyst was stable for weeks in solution and could be reused more than seven times without significant loss in catalytic activity. The gram-scale reaction was also performed to produce the desired product in high yields. This journal is

, p. 52 - 62 (2021/02/06)
A novel protocol for CuCl2-promoted oxidative C-N bond cleavage of N-benzoyl amino acids was developed. It is the first example of using accessible amino acid as an ammonia synthetic equivalent for the synthesis of primary aryl amides via CuCl2-promoted oxidative C-N bond cleavage reaction. The present protocol shows excellent functional group tolerance and provides an alternative method for the synthetic of primary aryl amides in 84-96% yields.

Transformation of relatively less reactive functional groups under catalyst-free conditions is an interesting aspect and requires a typical protocol. Herein, we report the synthesis of various primary, secondary, and tertiary amines through hydroboration of amides using pinacolborane under catalyst-free and solvent-free conditions. The deoxygenative hydroboration of primary and secondary amides proceeded with excellent conversions. The comparatively less reactive tertiary amides were also converted to the corresponding N,N-diamines in moderate yields under catalyst-free conditions, although alcohols were obtained as a minor product.

A series of acyl fluorides was synthesized at 100 mmol scale using phase-transfer-catalyzed halogen exchange between acyl chlorides and aqueous bifluoride solution. The convenient procedure consists of vigorous stirring of the biphasic mixture at room temperature, followed by extraction and distillation. Isolated acyl fluorides (usually 7-20 g) display excellent purity and can be transformed into sterically hindered amides and esters when treated with lithium amide bases and alkoxides under mild conditions.

Herein, we describe an intelligent strategy to fabricate nanosheets of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) decorated with nanorods copper oxide (CuO NRs). Then, the catalytic activity of CuONRs/g-C3N4-NS was developed for the synthesis of primary amides in water. The morphology of CuO and its synergetics effect with nanosheets g-C3N4 a major role in the yield of products. Furthermore, hydroxylamine hydrochloride (NH2OH·HCl) due to availability and affordability was used as a suitable substitute for ammonia source. The findings demonstrate that this layer nanostructure is a superb catalyst for converting various derivatives of aldehyde to their corresponding amides. The current protocol can be useful criterion in the synthesis and stabilization of metal oxides and provides new insight in organic transformation.

A series of β-ketoamino-based N,O-chelate half-sandwich iridium complexes with the general formula [Cp*IrClL] have been prepared in good yields. These air-insensitive iridium complexes showed desirable catalytic activity in an amide preparation under mild conditions. A number of amides with diverse substituted groups were furnished in a one-pot reaction with good-to-excellent yields through an amidation reaction of NH2OH·HCl with aldehydes in the presence of these iridium(III) precursors. The excellent catalytic activity, mild reaction conditions, and broad substrate scope gave this type of iridium catalyst potential for use in industry. All of the obtained iridium complexes were well characterized by different spectroscopy techniques. The exact molecular structure of complex 3 has been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis.

The direct synthesis of amides and nitriles from readily available aldehyde precursors provides access to functional groups of major synthetic utility. To date, most reliable catalytic methods have typically been optimized to supply one product exclusively. Herein, we describe an approach centered on an operationally simple iron-based system that, depending on the reaction conditions, selectively addresses either the C=O or C-H bond of aldehydes. This way, two divergent reaction pathways can be opened to furnish both products in high yields and selectivities under mild reaction conditions. The catalyst system takes advantage of iron's dual reactivity capable of acting as (1) a Lewis acid and (2) a nitrene transfer platform to govern the aldehyde building block. The present transformation offers a rare control over the selectivity on the basis of the iron system's ionic nature. This approach expands the repertoire of protocols for amide and nitrile synthesis and shows that fine adjustments of the catalyst system's molecular environment can supply control over bond activation processes, thus providing easy access to various products from primary building blocks.
