A novel methodology for the construction of various secondary (4 examples), tertiary amides (31 examples), and imides (16 examples) by a Cobalt(II) catalyzed oxidative amide coupling in aqueous media. The Co(III)-TMC was reacted with N-Heteroatom Carbene to form active catalyst Co(II)NHC-TMC in situ which involves in the coordination with Breslow's intermediate and SET for the activation of aldehyde and amides. The mechanism for activation of amide and amine differs on the basis of SET based nucleophilic addition and ligand exchange respectively. The regeneration of the catalyst was achieved using Fe(III)(EDTA)-H2O2 as oxidant. The use of Co(II)TMC-O2 was also found equally efficient in the process. The method is found regioselective for N?H activation in the presence of equally susceptible ortho-C?H bond activation. And amines were found more susceptible then the corresponding amide for the reaction.

Abstract The synthesis of bis-oxindoles via the copper(II)-mediated double cyclisation of linear bis-anilides is described. Cu(OAc)2·H2O was identified as an efficient and inexpensive catalyst for this process. In contrast to previous methods, which rely on the synthesis of the central core from existing oxindole building blocks, this new approach focusses on concurrent formation of both oxindole rings from a simple linear precursor, allowing the formation of bis-oxindoles containing a diverse range of cyclic and acyclic linkers using a single synthetic method.

A double C-H, Ar-H coupling process for the conversion of bis-anilides into spirocyclic bis-oxindoles, enabling the concomitant formation of two all-carbon quaternary centers at oxindole 3-positions in a diastereoselective manner, is described. The optimum cyclization conditions utilize stoichiometric Cu(OAc)2·H2O/KOtBu in DMF at 110 °C and have been applied to prepare a range of structurally diverse bis-spirooxindoles in fair to good yields (28-77%); the method has also been extended to prepare bis-oxindoles linked by a functionalized acyclic carbon chain.
