- Nitrogen Atom Transfer Catalysis by Metallonitrene C?H Insertion: Photocatalytic Amidation of Aldehydes
-
C?H amination and amidation by catalytic nitrene transfer are well-established and typically proceed via electrophilic attack of nitrenoid intermediates. In contrast, the insertion of (formal) terminal nitride ligands into C?H bonds is much less developed and catalytic nitrogen atom transfer remains unknown. We here report the synthesis of a formal terminal nitride complex of palladium. Photocrystallographic, magnetic, and computational characterization support the assignment as an authentic metallonitrene (Pd?N) with a diradical nitrogen ligand that is singly bonded to PdII. Despite the subvalent nitrene character, selective C?H insertion with aldehydes follows nucleophilic selectivity. Transamidation of the benzamide product is enabled by reaction with N3SiMe3. Based on these results, a photocatalytic protocol for aldehyde C?H trimethylsilylamidation was developed that exhibits inverted, nucleophilic selectivity as compared to typical nitrene transfer catalysis. This first example of catalytic C?H nitrogen atom transfer offers facile access to primary amides after deprotection.

- Manganese-Pincer-Catalyzed Nitrile Hydration, α-Deuteration, and α-Deuterated Amide Formation via Metal Ligand Cooperation
-
A simple and efficient system for the hydration and α-deuteration of nitriles to form amides, α-deuterated nitriles, and α-deuterated amides catalyzed by a single pincer complex of the earth-abundant manganese capable of metal-ligand cooperation is reported. The reaction is selective and tolerates a wide range of functional groups, giving the corresponding amides in moderate to good yields. Changing the solvent from tert-butanol to toluene and using D2O results in formation of α-deuterated nitriles in high selectivity. Moreover, α-deuterated amides can be obtained in one step directly from nitriles and D2O in THF. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest the transformations contributing toward activation of the nitriles via a metal-ligand cooperative pathway, generating the manganese ketimido and enamido pincer complexes as the key intermediates for further transformations.

- Aerobic oxidation of primary amines to amides catalyzed by an annulated mesoionic carbene (MIC) stabilized Ru complex
-
Catalytic aerobic oxidation of primary amines to the amides, using the precatalyst [Ru(COD)(L1)Br2] (1) bearing an annulated π-conjugated imidazo[1,2-a][1,8]naphthyridine-based mesoionic carbene ligand L1, is disclosed. This catalytic protocol is distinguished by its high activity and selectivity, wide substrate scope and modest reaction conditions. A variety of primary amines, RCH2NH2 (R = aliphatic, aromatic and heteroaromatic), are converted to the corresponding amides using ambient air as an oxidant in the presence of a sub-stoichiometric amount of KOtBu in tBuOH. A set of control experiments, Hammett relationships, kinetic studies and DFT calculations are undertaken to divulge mechanistic details of the amine oxidation using 1. The catalytic reaction involves abstraction of two amine protons and two benzylic hydrogen atoms of the metal-bound primary amine by the oxo and hydroxo ligands, respectively. A β-hydride transfer step for the benzylic C-H bond cleavage is not supported by Hammett studies. The nitrile generated by the catalytic oxidation undergoes hydration to afford the amide as the final product. This journal is

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.

-
The Schmidt reaction has been an efficient and widely used synthetic approach to amides and nitriles since its discovery in 1923. However, its application often entails the use of volatile, potentially explosive, and highly toxic azide reagents. Here, we report a sequence whereby triflic anhydride and formic and acetic acids activate the bulk chemical nitromethane to serve as a nitrogen donor in place of azides in Schmidt-like reactions. This protocol further expands the substrate scope to alkynes and simple alkyl benzenes for the preparation of amides and nitriles.

- Supported palladium catalyzed aminocarbonylation of aryl iodides employing bench-stable CO and NH3surrogates
-
A simple, efficient and phosphine free protocol for carbonylative synthesis of primary aromatic amides under polystyrene supported palladium (Pd?PS) nanoparticle (NP) catalyzed conditions has been demonstrated. Herein, instead of using two toxic and difficult to handle gases simultaneously, we have employed the solid, economical, bench stable oxalic acid as the CO source and ammonium carbamate as the NH3source in a single pot reaction. For the first time, we have applied two non-gaseous surrogates simultaneously under heterogeneous catalyst (Pd?PS) conditions for the synthesis of primary amides using an easy to handle double-vial (DV) system. The developed strategy showed a good functional group tolerance towards a wide range of aryl iodides and afforded primary aromatic amides in good yields. The Pd?PS catalyst was easy to separate and can be recycled up to four consecutive runs with small loss in catalytic activity. We have successfully extended the scope of the methodology to the synthesis of isoindole-1,3-diones from 1,2-dihalobenzene, 2-halobenzoates and 2-halobenzoic acid following double and single carbonylative cyclization approaches.

Nitrile hydration provides access to amides that are important structural elements in organic chemistry. Here we report catalytic nitrile hydration using ruthenium catalysts based on a pincer scaffold with a dearomatized pyridine backbone. These complexes catalyze the nucleophilic addition of H2O to a wide variety of aliphatic and (hetero)aromatic nitriles in tBuOH as solvent. Reactions occur under mild conditions (room temperature) in the absence of additives. A mechanism for nitrile hydration is proposed that is initiated by metal-ligand cooperative binding of the nitrile.

The development of heterogeneous catalysts for the synthesis of pharmaceutically relevant compounds is always important for chemistry research. Here, we report a selective aerobic oxidation of aromatic and aliphatic amines to corresponding amides over a nanorod manganese oxide (NR-MnOx) catalyst. The kinetic studies reveal that the NR-MnOx catalyzed amine-to-amide reaction proceeds the oxidative dehydrogenation of the amines into nitriles, followed by hydrolysis of nitrile into amides. The NR?MnOx exhibits fast kinetics and high selectivities in these steps, as well as hinders the by-product formation. More importantly, the NR-MnOx catalyst is stable and reusable in the continuous recycle tests with water as a sole by-product, exhibiting superior sustainability and significant advancement to outperform the traditional amide production route in acidic or basic media with toxic by-products.

- Water-soluble superbulky (η6- p -cymene) ruthenium(ii) amine: An active catalyst in the oxidative homocoupling of arylboronic acids and the hydration of organonitriles
-
A phosphine free water-soluble superbulky amine-ruthenium-arene complex (2) encompassing 2,6-bis(diphenylmethyl)-4-methylaniline was synthesised in good yield. 2 was characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopies, TGA and elemental analyses. The structure of 2 was confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The ruthenium centre in 2 adopts the pseudo-octahedral geometry due to the η6-p-cymene ring and bulky aniline ligand along with two chloro groups. Besides, complex 2 was efficaciously employed as a catalyst in the hydration of organonitriles to amides. This reaction proceeds efficiently for a wide range of substrates in an environmentally benign medium and is an economically reasonable synthetic route to amides in good yields. In addition, 2 acts as an excellent catalyst in the oxidative homocoupling of arylboronic acids in water. A range of arylboronic acids undergo a homocoupling reaction in the presence of catalyst 2 to yield symmetrical biaryls in reasonable to good yields.

- Mechanistic Studies of Palladium-Catalyzed Aminocarbonylation of Aryl Chlorides with Carbon Monoxide and Ammonia
-
Mechanistic information on a reliable, palladium-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of aryl chlorides with ammonia is reported. The reaction occurs with ethylene complex 1 as catalyst, and mechanistic information was gained by isolation of catalytic intermediates and kinetic measurements, including the first mechanistic data on the oxidative addition of aryl chloride to a palladium(0) complex in the presence of CO. Arylpalladium and phenacylpalladium halide intermediates were synthesized, and kinetic measurements of the formation and reactions of these intermediates were undertaken to determine the mechanism of the oxidative addition of aryl bromides and chlorides to a Pd(0) dicarbonyl compound in the presence of CO and the mechanism of the reaction of ammonia with a Pd(II) phenacyl complex to form benzamide. The oxidative addition of aryl chlorides and aryl bromides was determined to occur with rate-limiting reaction of the haloarene with a three-coordinate Pd(0) species bearing a bidentate phosphine and one CO ligand. A primary 13C kinetic isotope effect suggested that this step involves cleavage of the carbon-halogen bond. Our data show that the formation of benzamide from the reaction of phenacylpalladium halide complexes with ammonia occurs by a pathway involving reversible displacement of chloride from a phenacylpalladium chloride complex by ammonia, deprotonation of the bound ammonia to form a phenacylpalladium amido complex, and reductive elimination to form the C-N bond. Consistent with this mechanism, the reaction of an aryl palladium amido complex with CO formed the corresponding primary benzamide. A catalyst deactivation pathway involving the formation of a Pd(I) dimer also was elucidated.

- Copper(II)-Catalyzed Reactions of α-Keto Thioesters with Azides via C-C and C-S Bond Cleavages: Synthesis of N-Acylureas and Amides

Cu(II)-catalyzed reaction of α-keto thioesters with trimethylsilyl azide (TMSN3) proceeds with the transformation of the thioester group into urea through C-C and C-S bond cleavages, constituting a practical and straightforward synthesis of N-acylureas. When diphenyl phosphoryl azide (DPPA) is used instead as the azide source in an aqueous environment, primary amides are formed via substitution of the thioester group. The reactions are proposed to proceed through Curtius rearrangement of the initially formed α-keto acyl azide to generate an acyl isocyanate intermediate, which reacts further with an additional amount of azide or water and rearranges to afford the corresponding products. To demonstrate the potentiality of the method, one-step syntheses of pivaloylurea and isovaleroylurea, displaying anticonvulsant activities, have been carried out.

- Hemilability-Driven Water Activation: A NiII Catalyst for Base-Free Hydration of Nitriles to Amides
-
The NiII complex 1 containing pyridyl- and hydroxy-functionalized N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) is synthesized and its catalytic utility for the selective nitrile hydration to the corresponding amide under base-free conditions is evaluated. The title compound exploits a hemilabile pyridyl unit to interact with a catalytically relevant water molecule through hydrogen-bonding and promotes a nucleophilic water attack to the nitrile. A wide variety of nitriles is hydrated to the corresponding amides including the pharmaceutical drugs rufinamide, Rifater, and piracetam. Synthetically challenging α-hydroxyamides are accessed from cyanohydrins under neutral conditions. Related catalysts that lack the pyridyl unit (i.e., compounds 2 and 4) are not active whereas those containing both the pyridyl and the hydroxy or only the pyridyl pendant (i.e., compounds 1 and 3) show substantial activity. The linkage isomer 1′ where the hydroxy group is bound to the metal instead of the pyridyl group was isolated under different crystallization conditions insinuating a ligand hemilabile behavior. Additional pKa measurements reveal an accessible pyridyl unit under the catalytic conditions. Kinetic studies support a ligand-promoted nucleophilic water addition to a metal-bound nitrile group. This work reports a Ni-based catalyst that exhibits functional hemilability for hydration chemistry.

The formation of a heterobimetallic PdII/ScIII species has been proposed as the key species for the hydration that demonstrates a bimetallic synergistic effect in this process.

A series of four imidazolium salts was synthesized by the reaction of 2-bromopyridine with 1-substituted imidazoles. These imidazolium salts (1a–d) were successfully employed as ligand precursors for the syntheses of new ruthenium(II) complexes bearing neutral bidentate ligands of N-heterocyclic carbene and pyridine donor moiety. The NHC-ruthenium(II) complexes (3a–d) were synthesized by reacting the appropriately substituted pyridine-functionalized N-heterocyclic carbenes with Ag2O forming the NHC–silver bromide in situ followed by transmetalation with [RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3]. The new complexes were characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopy (IR, UV-Vis,1H,13C,31P-NMR) as well as ESI mass spectrometry. Based on the spectral results, an octahedral geometry was assigned for all the complexes. The complexes were shown to be efficient catalysts for the one-pot conversion of various aldehydes to their corresponding primary amides with good to excellent isolated yields using NH2OH.HCl and NaHCO3. The effects of solvent, base, temperature, time and catalyst loading were also investigated. A broad range of amides were successfully synthesized with excellent isolated yields using the above optimized protocol. Notably, the complex 3a was found to be a very efficient and versatile catalyst towards amidation of a wide range of aldehydes. [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

- Cu(II)-promoted oxidative C-N bond cleavage of N-benzoylamino acids to primary aryl amides
-
A novel protocol for CuCl2-promoted oxidative C-N bond cleavage of N-benzoyl amino acids was developed. It is the first example of using accessible amino acid as an ammonia synthetic equivalent for the synthesis of primary aryl amides via CuCl2-promoted oxidative C-N bond cleavage reaction. The present protocol shows excellent functional group tolerance and provides an alternative method for the synthetic of primary aryl amides in 84-96percent yields.

- Direct Transformation of Ethylarenes into Primary Aromatic Amides with N -Bromosuccinimide and I2-Aqueous NH3
-
A variety of ethylarenes were converted into the corresponding primary aromatic amides in good yields via treatment with N-bromosuccinimide in the presence of a catalytic amount of 2,2′-azobis(isobutyronitrile) in a mixture of ethyl acetate and water, acetonitrile and water, or chloroform and water, followed by reaction with molecular iodine and aq NH3 in one pot. It was found that aryl α-bromomethyl ketones and/or aryl methyl ketones were formed at the first reaction step and their iodoform-type reaction occurred at the second reaction step to provide primary aromatic amides. The present reaction is a useful and practical transition-metal-free method for the preparation of primary aromatic amides from ethylarenes. (Chemical Equation Presented).

- A method of from [...] amide
-
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing amides from oxime. The method is characterized by adding oxime, water and a water-soluble iridium complex catalyst to a reaction vessel, cooling a reactant to the room temperature after the reaction mixture reacts at 80-120 DEG C for several hours, removing water through selective evaporation, and obtaining a target product through column separation. Compared with existing methods for synthesizing amides through oxime rearrangement in water through transition metal catalysis, the method has the advantages that the used catalyst is low in load and does not contain phosphine ligands severely polluting the environment, so that the reaction can be carried out in the air, without nitrogen protection; therefore the reaction meets the green chemical requirements and has an extensive development prospect.

- Direct oxidative esterification of alcohols and hydration of nitriles catalyzed by a reusable silver nanoparticle grafted onto mesoporous polymelamine formaldehyde (AgNPs@mPMF)
-
A nitrogen-rich mesoporous organic polymer was synthesized as a novel support. A silver nanoparticle was synthesized and grafted onto it. The prepared catalyst (AgNPs@mPMF) was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), N2 adsorption, Raman spectroscopy and EPR study. The catalytic activity was evaluated for the oxidative esterification reaction of alcohols and hydration of nitriles. The oxidative esterification reaction was carried out for various activated alcohols giving excellent yields of the corresponding ester products. The catalyst was also efficient in the hydration of nitriles. Both reactions were optimized by varying the bases, temperatures and solvents. The catalyst can be facilely recovered and reused six times without a significant decrease in its activity and selectivity.

- Ruthenium(II) carbonyl complexes containing pyridoxal thiosemicarbazone and trans-bis(triphenylphosphine/arsine): Synthesis, structure and their recyclable catalysis of nitriles to amides and synthesis of imidazolines
-
Pyridoxal N(4)-substituted thisemicarbazone hydrochloride ligands (L1-3) were synthesized and reacted with the ruthenium(II) starting complexes [RuHCl(CO)(EPh3)3] (EP or As). The resulting complexes [Ru(CO)(L1-3)(EPh3)2] (1-6) were characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopic techniques. The molecular structure of complex 5 was identified by means of single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The catalytic activity of the new complexes was evaluated for the selective hydration of nitriles to primary amides and also the condensation of nitriles with ethylenediamine under solvent free conditions. The processes were operative with aromatic, heteroaromatic and aliphatic nitriles, and tolerated several substitutional groups. The studies on the effect of substitution over thiosemicarbazone, reaction time, temperature, solvent and catalyst loading were carried out in order to find the best catalyst in this series of complexes and favourable reaction conditions. A probable mechanism for both the catalytic reactions of nitrile has also been proposed. The catalyst was recovered and recycled in the hydration of nitriles for five times without any significant loss of its activity.

- Highly active, chemo- and enantioselective Pt-SPO catalytic systems for the synthesis of aromatic carboxamides
-
Platinum complexes modified with a chiral non-racemizing SPO preligand 1 have been applied in the hydration of aromatic nitriles. [Pt(1)3Cl]Cl formed readily from Pt(COD)Cl2. The chiral secondary phosphine oxide complex showed moderate activity in the hydration of para- and meta-substituted benzonitriles, but failed in converting the ortho-substituted derivatives. The hydride complex PtH(PR2OH)(PR2O-H?OR2P) (PR2OH = 1) formed from Pt(PPh3)4 and 1, and the cationic complex derived from [Pt(1)3Cl]Cl via direct chloride abstraction with AgNO3 were proven to be considerably more active, allowing us to extend the scope to the hydration of ortho-substituted aromatic nitriles, including axially chiral [1,1′-binaphthalene]-2,2′-dicarbonitrile. In the hydration of the racemic dinitrile, successful kinetic resolution has been achieved. The catalysts derived from non-racemizing 1 are the first chiral transition metal-SPO complexes that provide kinetic resolution in the hydration of a racemic chiral nitrile.

- Synthesis of Nitriles from Aldoximes and Primary Amides Using XtalFluor-E
-
The dehydration reaction of aldoximes and amides for the synthesis of nitriles using [Et2NSF2]BF4 (XtalFluor-E) is described. Overall, the reaction proceeds rapidly (normally 1 h) at room temperature in an environmentally benign solvent (EtOAc) with only a slight excess of the dehydrating agent (1.1 equiv). A broad scope of nitriles can be prepared, including chiral nonracemic ones. In addition, in a number of cases, further purification of the nitrile after the workup was not required.

- Hydration of Nitriles to Amides by Thiolate-Bridged Diiron Complexes
-
A series of nitrile-coordinating complexes [CpFe(μ-SEt)RCN]2[PF6]2 (1, R = alkyl, aryl, vinyl, amine) have been obtained by the reaction of [CpFe(μ-SEt)MeCN]2[PF6]2 (1a) with various nitriles in acetone. Complexes 1 can realize the hydration of a nitrile ligand under ambient conditions. Complexes [CpFe(μ-SEt)2(μ-η1:η1-NH(O)CR)FeCp][PF6] (2) were successfully isolated as intermediates during the hydration process, with 2b and 2e (R = CH2i = CH and Et2N) being characterized by spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. Treatment of 2 with HBF4·Et2O in the presence of nitriles released corresponding amides 3. At the same time, the structural features of the [Fe2S2] scaffold were retained. These results confirmed that the hydration of nitriles was realized by cooperative interaction on diiron centers. (Figure Presented).

- Palladium(II) complexes with a phosphino-oxime ligand: Synthesis, structure and applications to the catalytic rearrangement and dehydration of aldoximes
-
The treatment of [PdCl2(COD)] (COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) with 1 and 2 equivalents of 2-(diphenylphosphino)benzaldehyde oxime in dichloromethane at room temperature led to the selective formation of [PdCl2{κ2-(P,N)-2-Ph2PC6H4CHNOH}] (1) and [Pd{κ2-(P,N)-2-Ph2PC6H4CHNOH}2][Cl]2 (2), respectively, which represent the first examples of Pd(II) complexes containing a phosphino-oxime ligand. These compounds, whose structures were fully confirmed by X-ray diffraction methods, were active in the catalytic rearrangement of aldoximes. In particular, using 5 mol% complex 1, a large variety of aldoximes could be cleanly converted into the corresponding primary amides at 100 °C, employing water as solvent and without the assistance of any cocatalyst. Palladium nanoparticles are the active species in the rearrangement process. In addition, when the same reactions were performed employing acetonitrile as solvent, selective dehydration of the aldoximes to form the respective nitriles was observed. For comparative purposes, the catalytic behaviour of an oxime-derived palladacyclic complex has also been briefly evaluated.

The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, ESI mass spectrometry, and complexes 2 and 3 by single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. All complexes were used as catalysts under different reaction conditions for the formation of amides from aldehydes in the presence of NH2OH·HCl and NaHCO3. All complexes show good conversion with catalytic turnover numbers up to 500.
