α-C?H arylation of N-alkylamides using 2-iodoarylsulfonyl radical translocating arylating (RTA) groups is reported. The method allows the construction of α-quaternary carbon centers in amides. Various mono- and disubstituted RTA-groups are applied to the arylation of primary, secondary, and tertiary α-C(sp3)?H-bonds. These radical transformations proceed in good to excellent yields and the cascades comprise a 1,6-hydrogen atom transfer, followed by a 1,4-aryl migration with subsequent SO2 extrusion.

The palladium-catalyzed, α-selective hydroarylation of acrylates and acrylamides is reported. Under optimized conditions, this method is highly tolerant of a wide range of substrates including those with base sensitive functional groups and/or multiple enolizable carbonyl groups. A detailed mechanistic study was undertaken, and the high selectivity of this transformation was shown to be enabled by the formation of a [PdII(Ar)(H)] intermediate, which performs selective hydride insertion into the β-position of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds.

The use of Pseudomonas stutzeri lipase (PSL) as a biocatalyst for aminolysis reactions with bulky substrates has been investigated. PSL compared favorably to Novozym 435 (immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B, NOV435) in the aminolysis of various bulky methyl esters and amines. While NOV435 demonstrated a higher rate of aminolysis with methyl 2-phenylpropionic acid as the acyl donor, PSL outperformed NOV435 with secondary amines as the nucleophile. Methanol inhibition and a low affinity for bulky acyl donors were found to be the two main reasons for relatively low rates in the PSL-catalyzed aminolysis reactions. It was demonstrated that the use of molsieve 4A had a significant effect on the aminolysis rate and amide yield, since it enabled the effective removal of the inhibiting methanol from the reaction mixture.

The first examples of the Favorskii-type rearrangement of α-monochloro ketimines are reported.The regiospecific opening of the intermediate cyclopropylideneamines parallels the opening of cyclopropanes under Favorskii-conditions.
Rapid Acid-catalysed and Uncatalysed Hydration of Ketenimines

The rates of hydration of a series of ketenimines (9) have been examined in water (μ 1.0; 25 deg) over the pH range 2-13.Three mechanisms of hydration to the amides (8) were noted: (a) general acid catalysis by proton transfer from H3O(1+) in the pH range 2-7 (giving kH3O(1+)/kD3O(1+) 2.65); (b) general acid catalysis by H2O at pH > 7 (where kH2O/kD2O = 4.8); (c) rate determining HO(1-) attack.The last mechanism was only shown by N-arylketenimines, e.g. (9e); other N-alkylketenimines continue to react by rate-determining proton transfer from water even at pH 13.This result is confirmed by the incorporation of just one deuterium when (9a) reacted in acidic or basic D2O, while the deuteriated ketenimine (9f) does not loose the label on the reaction in water.Substituent effects are parallel for reactions involving H(1+) transfer from H3O(1+) or H2O; the major effects are obtained on changing substituents at carbon (the protonation site).For example, replacement of C-H by C-Me reduces the reactivity by 10-20-fold, while replacement of C-Me by C-Ph reduces the rate of hydration by >100-fold.Ammonium ions also generally react with ketenimines by rate-determining H(1+) transfer to the ketenimine followed by trapping of the nitrilium ion formed by the free amine.Only with the strongest amine base studied (piperidine) does direct nucleophilic attack on the ketenimine compete.
