Reitz, Allen,Verlander, Michael,Goodman, Murray
, p. 751 - 752 (1982)
The alumina-catalyzed transformations of urethane to a secundary amine and a sulfonyl urethane to a sulfonamide are described.Alumina is also shown to catalyze the conjugate addition of p-toluenesulfonamide to methyl vinyl ketone.

We report how the rearrangement of highly reactive nitrile imines derived from N-2-nitrophenyl hydrazonyl bromides can be harnessed for the facile construction of amide bonds. This amidation reaction was found to be widely applicable to the synthesis of primary, secondary, and tertiary amides and was used as the key step in the synthesis of the lipid-lowering agent bezafibrate. The orthogonality and functional group tolerance of this approach was exemplified by the N-acylation of unprotected amino acids.

Herein, we report a CO2-mediated base catalysis approach for the activation of triple bonds in ionic liquids (ILs) with anions that can chemically capture CO2 (e.g., azolate, phenolate, and acetate), which can achieve hydration of triple bonds to carbonyl chemicals. It is discovered that the anion-complexed CO2 could abstract one proton from proton resources (e.g., IL cation) and transfer it to the CN or CC bonds via a six-membered ring transition state, thus realizing their hydration. In particular, tetrabutylphosphonium 2-hydroxypyridine shows high efficiency for hydration of nitriles and CC bond-containing compounds under a CO2 atmosphere, affording a series of carbonyl compounds in excellent yields. This catalytic protocol is simple, green, and highly efficient and opens a new way to access carbonyl compounds via triple bond hydration under mild and metal-free conditions.
