An Environmentally Benign, Catalyst-Free N?C Bond Cleavage/Formation of Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Unactivated Amides

Herein, we report an operationally simple, cheap, and catalyst-free method for the transamidation of a diverse range of unactivated amides furnishing the desired products in excellent yields. This protocol is environmentally friendly and operates under extremely mild conditions without using any promoter or additives. Significantly, this strategy has been implied in the chemoselective synthesis of a pharmaceutical molecule, paracetamol, on a gram-scale with excellent yield. We anticipate that this universally applicable strategy will be of great interest in drug discovery, biochemistry, and organic synthesis.

Copper-Catalyzed Radical N-Demethylation of Amides Using N-Fluorobenzenesulfonimide as an Oxidant

An unprecedented N-demethylation of N-methyl amides has been developed by use of N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide as an oxidant with the aid of a copper catalyst. The conversion of amides to carbinolamines involves successive single-electron transfer, hydrogen-atom transfer, and hydrolysis, and is accompanied by formation of N-(phenylsulfonyl)benzenesulfonamide. Carbinolamines spontaneously decompose to N-demethylated amides and formaldehyde, because of their inherent instability.

N-demethylation method for amide and application thereof

The invention discloses an N-demethylation method for amide and application thereof. The method comprises the following steps: heating raw amide to 40-120 DEG C under the action of N-fluorodibenzenesulfonamide and a bivalent copper salt, and carrying out a reaction to obtain demethylated amide. The chemical structural formula of the raw amide is described in the specification; the chemical structural formula of the demethylated amide is described in the specification; and in the formulas, R1 is selected from aryl, alkyl and alkenyl groups, and R2 is selected from aryl, alkyl and alkenyl groups. With the method, N-demethylation of amide can be achieved; and the method has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, easiness in operation, low cost and the like.

Pd-catalyzed carbonylation of diazo compounds at atmospheric pressure: A catalytic approach to ketenes

The carbonylation of carbenes through catalytic cycles is highly desirable due to the importance of ketene-mediated reactions in organic synthesis. In this investigation, a highly efficient and mild catalytic approach toward ketene intermediates has been developed based on Pd-catalyzed carbonylation of diazo compounds with CO. When α-diazocarbonyl compounds or N-tosylhydrazone salts are heated in the presence of a palladium catalyst under atmospheric pressure of CO, ketene intermediates are formed in situ, where they undergo further reactions with various nucleophiles such as alcohols, amines, or imines. The Pd-catalyzed tandem carbonylation-Staudinger cycloaddition gives β-lactam derivatives in good yields with excellent trans diastereoselectivity. The results from DFT calculation on the reaction mechanism suggest that Pd is involved in the [2 + 2] cycloaddition process and affects the diastereoselectivity of the β-lactam products by assisting isomerization of the addition intermediate. On the other hand, the acylketenes generated from the Pd-catalyzed carbonylation of α-diazoketones react with imines in a formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition manner to afford 1,3-dioxin-4-one derivatives. This straightforward carbonylation provides a new approach toward highly efficient catalytic generation of ketene species under mild conditions.
