Homoleptic Bis(trimethylsilyl)amides of Yttrium Complexes Catalyzed Hydroboration Reduction of Amides to Amines

Homoleptic lanthanide complex Y[N(TMS)2]3 is an efficient homogeneous catalyst for the hydroboration reduction of secondary amides and tertiary amides to corresponding amines. A series of amides containing different functional groups such as cyano, nitro, and vinyl groups were found to be well-tolerated. This transformation has also been nicely applied to the synthesis of indoles and piribedil. Detailed isotopic labeling experiments, control experiments, and kinetic studies provided cumulative evidence to elucidate the reaction mechanism.

An efficient and mild oxidative amidation of aldehydes using B(C6F5)3 as a catalyst and biological evaluation of the products as potential antimicrobial agents

A mild and efficient protocol for oxidative amidation of diverse aldehydes with amines was developed using 3 mol% tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane and tert-butyl hydroperoxide to generate the corresponding amides in good to excellent yields. This method has significant advantages such as short reaction time, low toxicity, low catalyst loading, and being environmentally friendly and an operationally simple procedure. Acid labile protecting groups such as acyl and Boc displayed tolerance under the present catalytic system. Applicability in large scale synthesis of amides is an added advantage of the protocol. Moreover, direct amidation of aldehydes using substituted N-benzylanilines for the synthesis of corresponding amides was devised using the present catalytic system. Compounds 3n and 3o displayed promising antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (Gram positive) with MIC ranging from 0.4-0.7 μg mL?1 and against Escherichia coli (Gram negative) with MIC 0.7-1.2 μg mL?1 with reference to the standard drug Ciprofloxacin.

Metal-free amidation of carboxylic acids with tertiary amines

A direct amidation of carboxylic acids with tertiary amines could be carried out in the presence of the Ph3P-I2 activator. With an appropriate reagent addition sequence, a range of carboxylic acids including aliphatic, allylic, and aromatic acids could be converted into their corresponding tertiary amides under mild conditions without requirement of metal catalysis.

Radical-Induced Metal and Solvent-Free Cross-Coupling Using TBAI-TBHP: Oxidative Amidation of Aldehydes and Alcohols with N-Chloramines via C-H Activation

A solvent-free cross-coupling method for oxidative amidation of aldehydes and alcohols via a metal-free radial pathway has been demonstrated. The proposed methodology uses the TBAI-TBHP combination which efficiently induces metal-free C-H activation of aldehydes under neat conditions at 50 °C or ball-milling conditions at room temperature.

Iodine-catalyzed efficient amide formation from aldehydes and amines

An efficient iodine-catalyzed radical oxidative amidation of aldehydes with amines has been developed. This methodology was employed to prepare amides in good to excellent yields with the advantages of wide functional group tolerance and operational simplicity.

Efficient metal-free hydrosilylation of tertiary, secondary and primary amides to amines

Hydrosilylation of secondary and tertiary amides to amines is described using catalytic amounts of B(C6F5)3. The organic catalyst enables the reduction of amides with cost-efficient, non-toxic and air stable PMHS and TMDS hydrosilanes. The methodology was successfully extended to the more challenging reduction of primary amides.

While the iron is hot: The first general and efficient iron-catalyzed reduction of secondary and tertiary amides into amines using polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) has been developed (see scheme).

Highly chemoselective metal-free reduction of tertiary amides

This communication describes the chemoselective metal-free reduction of tertiary amides to the corresponding amines. Hantzsch ester is used as a mild reducing agent for the reduction of trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride activated amides providing the tertiary amines with high functional group tolerance. Copyright

POTENTIAL CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM ACTIVE AGENTS. 3. SYNTHESIS OF SOME SUBSTITUTED BENZAMIDES AND PHENYLACETAMIDES.

The preparation and special properties (IR, **1H NMR) are given for 45 benzamides and 10 phenylacetamides substituted on nitrogen with allyl, benzhydryl, benzyl, or cyclopropyl groups, and variously substituted on the acyl part with halo, methoxyl, methyl, or nitro groups. The benzamide derivatives were synthesized by the Schotten-Baumann method, and the phenylacetamide derivatives were prepared by heating the appropriate N-benzhydrylammonium salt in o-xylene. Thirty-one of the compounds are new.
