A method for the metal-free reduction of carboxylic amides using oxalyl chloride as an activating agent and hydrogen as the final reductant is introduced. The reaction proceeds via the hydrogen splitting by B(2,6-F2-C6H3)3 in combination with chloride as the Lewis base. Density functional theory calculations support the unprecedented role of halides as active Lewis base components in the frustrated Lewis pair mediated hydrogen activation. The reaction displays broad substrate scope for tertiary benzoic acid amides and α-branched carboxamides.

Decarboxylative halogenation of carboxylic acids, the Hunsdiecker reaction, is one of the fundamental functional group transformations in organic chemistry. As the initial method requires the preparations of strictly anhydrous silver carboxylates, several modifications have been developed to simplify the procedures. However, these methods suffer from the use of highly toxic reagents, harsh reaction conditions, or limited scope of application. In addition, none is catalytic for aliphatic carboxylic acids. In this Article, we report the first catalytic Hunsdiecker reaction of aliphatic carboxylic acids. Thus, with the catalysis of Ag(Phen)2OTf, the reactions of carboxylic acids with t-butyl hypochlorite afforded the corresponding chlorodecarboxylation products in high yields under mild conditions. This method is not only efficient and general, but also chemoselective. Moreover, it exhibits remarkable functional group compatibility, making it of more practical value in organic synthesis. The mechanism of single electron transfer followed by chlorine atom transfer is proposed for the catalytic chlorodecarboxylation.

Decarboxylative chlorination of various aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids is performed successfully by the photolysis of their benzophenone oxime esters in carbon tetrachloride and corresponding chloro compounds are prepared in good yields.High selective generation of the certain radical and efficiency of the stable radical precursor, benzophenone oxime ester, afford much advantage for radical chemistry.

Primary alkyl chlorides (R-Cl) are easily isolated in excellent yield after treatment of the appropriate N-alkylpiperidines (R-NC5H10) with α-chloroethyl chloroformate.The method is exemplified by the conversion of a variety of alkylpiperidines, including systems with other sensitive functionalities, to the respective chlorides in yields varying from 90 to 97percent.The potential significance of this process in drug congener preparation and in total synthesis is outlined.Similar fragmentations of N-sec-alkylpiperidines are described.
