The synthesis of ketones through addition of organometallic reagents to aliphatic carboxylic acids is a straightforward strategy that is limited to organolithium reagents. More desirable Grignard reagents can be activated and controlled with a bulky aniline-derived turbo-Hauser base. This operationally simple procedure allows the straightforward preparation of a variety of aliphatic and perfluoroalkyl ketones alike from functionalized alkyl, aryl and heteroaryl Grignard reagents.

N-Acyl lactam amides, such as benzoylpyrrolidin-2-one, benzoylpiperidin-2-one, and benzoylazepan-2-one reacted with amines in the presence of DTBP and TBAI to afford the transamidated products in good yields. The reactions were conducted under aqueous conditions and good functional group tolerance was achieved. Both aliphatic and aromatic primary amines displayed good activity under metal-free conditions. A radical reaction pathway is proposed.

A facile one-pot synthesis of amides from N-Alloc-, N-Boc-, and N-Cbz-protected amines has been described. The reactions involve the use of isocyanate intermediates, which are generated in situ in the presence of 2-chloropyridine and trifluoromethanesulfonyl anhydride, to react with Grignard reagents to produce the corresponding amides. Using this reaction protocol, a variety of N-Alloc-, N-Boc-, and N-Cbz-protected aliphatic amines and aryl amines were efficiently converted to amides with high yields. This method is highly effective for the synthesis of amides and offers a promising approach for facile amidation.

Paragraph 0013-0015; 0025-0027, (2021/02/10)
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing an amide derivative under the catalysis of vanadium, which comprises the following step of: by using a nitro aromatic compound and an ester compound as raw materials, a vanadium compound as a catalyst and magnesium chips as a reducing agent, carrying out amidation reaction in an organic solvent to obtain the amide derivative. The method has the advantages that (1) the nitro aromatic compound which is good in stability, low in price and easy to obtain is used as a nitrogen source; (2) the used catalyst is cheap, easy to obtain and low in toxicity; and (3) the method has good substrate applicability, and is suitable for aromatic nitro compounds, fatty esters and aryl esters containing different substituents.

We report a new visible-light-mediated carbonylative amidation of aryl, heteroaryl, and alkyl halides. A tandem catalytic cycle of [Ir(ppy)2(dtb-bpy)]+ generates a potent iridium photoreductant through a second catalytic cycle in the presence of DIPEA, which productively engages aryl bromides, iodides, and even chlorides as well as primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl iodides. The versatile in situ generated catalyst is compatible with aliphatic and aromatic amines, shows high functional-group tolerance, and enables the late-stage amidation of complex natural products.

An iron-catalyzed oxidative coupling reaction of isocyanide and readily available alkane has been disclosed. In the presence of a catalytic amount of FeCp2 (10 mol%), heating a mixture of alkane, isocyanide, and DTBP in DCE allows for the formation of an amide. This reaction tolerates many simple alkanes including cycloalkanes and chain alkanes. Furthermore, a series of aromatic isocyanides having different substituents on the aromatic ring are also proven to be effective reaction components. Unfortunately, the employment of aliphatic isocyanides fails to afford the desired products. The present strategy avoids tedious procedures and the employment of toxic starting materials, thus providing an environmentally benign and efficient protocol towards amide synthesis.

The amide bond is one of the most fundamental functional groups in chemistry and biology and plays a central role in numerous processes harnessed to streamline the synthesis of key pharmaceutical and industrial molecules. Although the synthesis of amides is one of the most frequently performed reactions by academic and industrial scientists, the direct transamidation of tertiary amides is challenging due to unfavorable kinetic and thermodynamic contributions of the process. Herein, we report the first general, mild, and highly chemoselective method for transamidation of unactivated tertiary amides by a direct acyl N-C bond cleavage with non-nucleophilic amines. This operationally simple method is performed in the absence of transition metals and operates under unusually mild reaction conditions. In this context, we further describe the direct amidation of abundant alkyl esters to afford amide bonds with exquisite selectivity by acyl C-O bond cleavage. The utility of this process is showcased by a broad scope of the method, including various sensitive functional groups, late-stage modification, and the synthesis of drug molecules (>80 examples). Remarkable selectivity toward different functional groups and within different amide and ester electrophiles that is not feasible using existing methods was observed. Extensive experimental and computational studies were conducted to provide insight into the mechanism and the origins of high selectivity. We further present a series of guidelines to predict the reactivity of amides and esters in the synthesis of valuable amide bonds by this user-friendly process. In light of the importance of the amide bond in organic synthesis and major practical advantages of this method, the study opens up new opportunities in the synthesis of pivotal amide bonds in a broad range of chemical contexts.

Challenging functionalization of C(sp3)-H has recently attracted much attention of organic chemists. In this paper, we developed a Ni(acac)2-catalyzed activation of unreactive alkanes with formanilides in the presence of carbon monoxide to furnish moderate to excellent yields of amides. This is the first example of aminocarbonylation of inert alkanes using nickel-based catalyst, and formanilides is disclosed to be an interesting amine source owing to the peculiar deformylation nature of imide intermediates.

A [bmIm]OH-catalyzed amidation of azides and aldehydes is reported. This reaction is easily handled and proceeds under mild conditions. The overall transformation involves azide-enolate cycloaddition, which subsequently undergoes rearrangement to give amides. Importantly, the employment of ionic liquid makes this transformation green and practical.

The series of differently substituted ketenimines 1 was hydroluminated using di-iso-butyl aluminum hydride. For the sterically congested ketenimine 1a, preferred hydroalumination of the C=N-bond was proven by X-ray crystallography (compound 5a). In situ treatment of the hydroaluminated ketenimines 5 with various heterocumulenes like carbodiimides, isocycanates, isothiocyanates and ketenimines as electrophiles and subsequent hydrolytic workup resulted in novel enamine derived amide species in case of N-attack (sterically less hindered ketenimines) under formation of a new C-N-bond or in 1,3-diimines by C-C-bond-formation in case of bulky substituents at the ketenimine-nitrogen atom. Furthermore, domino reactions with more than 1 equiv of the electrophile or by subsequent addition of two different electrophiles are possible and lead to polyfunctional amide derivatives of the biuret type which are otherwise not easily accessible.
