, p. 9435 - 9438 (1998)
The C-O bond in xanthates derived from carbohydrates can be reductively cleaved by heating in 2-propanol in the presence of equimolar amounts of dilauroyl peroxide, added in small portions; if benzene is used as the solvent, an O- to S- rearrangement of the xanthate occurs.

The direct conversion of a variety of heteroaromatic bromides into heteroaromatic amides is described. This reaction utilizes Mo(CO)6 as the carbon monoxide source and is performed using microwave heating allowing for very short reaction times. This convenient methodology allows for the preparation of a variety of heteroaromatic amides useful in medicinal chemistry applications.

A new green approach for the synthesis of amide through TBAI-catalyzed oxidative coupling of benzyl bromides with amine was developed in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as an oxidant. Various electron-donating and withdrawing groups containing benzyl bromides and various amines, were subjected to the reaction and transformed to the corresponding amide in good to excellent yields.

Transformation of relatively less reactive functional groups under catalyst-free conditions is an interesting aspect and requires a typical protocol. Herein, we report the synthesis of various primary, secondary, and tertiary amines through hydroboration of amides using pinacolborane under catalyst-free and solvent-free conditions. The deoxygenative hydroboration of primary and secondary amides proceeded with excellent conversions. The comparatively less reactive tertiary amides were also converted to the corresponding N,N-diamines in moderate yields under catalyst-free conditions, although alcohols were obtained as a minor product.

In this paper, a NaOtBu-mediated synthesis approach was developed for direct amidation of unactivated esters with amines under transition-metal-free and solvent-free conditions, affording a series of amides in good to excellent yields at room temperature. In particular, an environmentally friendly and practical workup procedure, which circumvents the use of organic solvents and chromatography in most cases, was disclosed. Moreover, the gram-scale production of representative products3a,3wand3auwas efficiently realized by applying operationally simple, sustainable and practical procedures. Furthermore, this approach was also applicable to the synthesis of valuable molecules such as moclobemide (a powerful antidepressant), benodanil and fenfuram (two commercial agricultural fungicides). These results demonstrate that this protocol has the potential to streamline amide synthesis in industry. Meanwhile, quantitative green metrics of all the target products were evaluated, implying that the present protocol is advantageous over the reported ones in terms of environmental friendliness and sustainability. Finally, additional experiments and computational calculations were carried out to elucidate the mechanistic insight of this transformation, and one plausible mechanism was provided on the basis of these results and the related literature reports.

Paragraph 0089-0090, (2021/05/12)
The invention relates to a method for preparing amide from carboxylic acid under the irradiation of blue light by taking iridium and cobalt complexes as catalysts, and belongs to the field of chemistry. The method comprises the following step of: by taking R substituted carboxylic acid and R1' and R2' substituted amines as raw materials, triphenylphosphine as a deoxidizing agent, [Ir(dF(CF3)ppy)2(dtbbpy)]PF6 as a photocatalyst and Co(dmgH)(dmgH2)Cl2 as a metal complex catalyst, reacting in dichloromethane in an inert atmosphere and under the irradiation of blue light to obtain an amide compound, wherein R is an aryl group, a heteroaryl group, a protected amino group, a substituted alkyl group, a substituted aryl group or a substituted protected amino group, R1' is a hydrogen group, a substituted alkyl group, a phenyl group or a substituted phenyl group, and R2' is a hydrogen group, a substituted alkyl group, a phenyl group or a substituted phenyl group.

Ammonia-borane serves as an efficient substoichiometric (10%) precatalyst for the direct amidation of both aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids. In situ generation of amine-boranes precedes the amidation and, unlike the amidation with stoichiometric amine-boranes, this process is facile with 1 equiv of the acid. This methodology has high functional group tolerance and chromatography-free purification but is not amenable for esterification. The latter feature has been exploited to prepare hydroxyl- and thiol-containing amides.

We report that the nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction of aliphatic and (hetero)aromatic amides by organolithium reagents proceeds quickly (20 s reaction time), efficiently, and chemoselectively with a broad substrate scope in the environmentally responsible cyclopentyl methyl ether, at ambient temperature and under air, to provide ketones in up to 93 % yield with an effective suppression of the notorious over-addition reaction. Detailed DFT calculations and NMR investigations support the experimental results. The described methodology was proven to be amenable to scale-up and recyclability protocols. Contrasting classical procedures carried out under inert atmospheres, this work lays the foundation for a profound paradigm shift of the reactivity of carboxylic acid amides with organolithiums, with ketones being straightforwardly obtained by simply combining the reagents under aerobic conditions and with no need of using previously modified or pre-activated amides, as recommended.

A novel, one-step N-dehydrogenation of amides to enamides is reported. This reaction employs the unlikely combination of LiHMDS and triflic anhydride, which serves as both the electrophilic activator and the oxidant, and is characterized by its simple setup and broad substrate scope. The synthetic utility of the formed enamides was readily demonstrated in a range of downstream transformations.

Here we describe the discovery of a new class of C-H borylation catalysts and their use for regioselective C-H borylation of aromatic, heteroaromatic, and aliphatic systems. The new catalysts have Ir-C(thienyl) or Ir-C(furyl) anionic ligands instead of the diamine-type neutral chelating ligands used in the standard C-H borylation conditions. It is reported that the employment of these newly discovered catalysts show excellent reactivity and ortho-selectivity for diverse classes of aromatic substrates with high isolated yields. Moreover, the catalysts proved to be efficient for a wide number of aliphatic substrates for selective C(sp3)-H bond borylations. Heterocyclic molecules are selectively borylated using the inherently elevated reactivity of the C-H bonds. A number of late-stage C-H functionalization have been described using the same catalysts. Furthermore, we show that one of the catalysts could be used even in open air for the C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H borylations enabling the method more general. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the active catalytic intermediate is the Ir(bis)boryl complex, and the attached ligand acts as bidentate ligand. Collectively, this study underlines the discovery of new class of C-H borylation catalysts that should find wide application in the context of C-H functionalization chemistry.
