- Synthesis and characterization of nano-cellulose immobilized phenanthroline-copper (I) complex as a recyclable and efficient catalyst for preparation of diaryl ethers, N-aryl amides and N-aryl heterocycles
-
Functionalized nanocellulose was prepared and employed for immobilization of phenanthroline-copper(I) complex to afford cellulose nanofibril grafted heterogeneous copper catalyst [CNF-phen-Cu(I)]. This nanocatalyst was well characterized using FT-IR, NMR, XRD, CHNS, AAS, TGA, EDX and SEM. The activities of the synthesized catalyst were examined in the synthesis of diaryl ethers via C-O cross-coupling of phenols and aryl iodides, as well as, the preparation of N-aryl amides and N-aryl heterocycles through C-N cross-coupling of amides and N-H heterocycle compounds with aryl halides. In this trend, various substrates containing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups were exploited to evaluate the generality of this catalytic protocol. Accordingly, the catalyst demonstrated remarkable catalytic efficiency for both C-N and C-O cross-coupling reactions, thereby resulting in good to excellent yields of the desired products. Furthermore, the recoverability experiments of the catalyst showed that it can be readily retrieved by simple filtration and successfully reused several times with negligible loss of its catalytic activity.

- The structures of ring-expanded NHC supported copper(
-
Three ring-expanded N-heterocyclic carbene-supported copper(i) triphenylstannyls have been synthesised by the reaction of (RE-NHC)CuOtBu with triphenylstannane (RE-NHC = 6-Mes, 6-Dipp, 7-Dipp). The compounds were characterised by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Reaction of (6-Mes)CuSnPh3 with di-p-tolyl carbodiimide, phenyl isocyanate and phenylisothiocyanate gives access to a copper(i) benzamidinate, benzamide and benzothiamide respectively via phenyl transfer from the triphenylstannyl anion with concomitant formation of (Ph2Sn)n. Attempts to exploit this reactivity under a catalytic regime were hindered by rapid copper(i)-catalysed dismutation of Ph3SnH to Ph4Sn, various perphenylated tin oligomers, H2 and a metallic material thought to be Sn(0). Mechanistic insight was provided by reaction monitoring via NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.

- The role of silver carbonate as a catalyst in the synthesis of N -phenylbenzamide from benzoic acid and phenyl isocyanate: A mechanistic exploration
-
The gas-phase extrusion-insertion (ExIn) reactions of a silver complex [(BPS)Ag(O2CC6H5)]2- ([BPS]2- = 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline-disulfonate), generated via electrospray ionisation was investigated by Multistage Mass Spectrometry (MS n ) experiments in a linear ion trap combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Extrusion of carbon dioxide under collision-induced dissociation (CID) generates the organosilver intermediate [(BPS)Ag(C6H5)]2-, which subsequently reacts with phenyl isocyanate via insertion to yield [(BPS)Ag(NPhC(O)C6H5)]2-. Further CID of the product ion resulted in the formation of [(BPS)Ag(C6H5)]2-, [(BPS)Ag]- and C6H5C(O)NPh-. The formation of a coordinated amidate anion is supported by DFT calculations. Heating a mixture of benzoic acid, phenyl isocyanate, silver carbonate (5 mol%) and phenanthroline (20 mol%) in DMSO and heating by microwave irradiation led to the formation N-phenyl-benzamide in an isolated yield of 89%. The yield decreased to 74% without the addition of phenanthroline, while replacing silver carbonate with sodium carbonate gave an isolated yield of 84%, suggesting that the ExIn reaction may not operate in solution. This was confirmed using benzoic acid with a 13C-isotopic-label at the carboxylate carbon as the starting material, which, under microwave heating in the presence of phenyl isocyanate, silver carbonate (5 mol%) and phenanthroline (20 mol%) gave N-phenyl-benzamide with retention of the 13C isotopic label based on GC-MS experiments under electron ionisation (EI) conditions. DFT calculations using a solvent continuum reveal that the barriers associated with the pathway involving direct attack by the non-coordinated benzoate are below the ExIn pathways for the coordinated silver benzoate.

- Palladium(II) Complexes of a Neutral CCC-Tris(N-heterocyclic carbene) Pincer Ligand: Synthesis and Catalytic Applications
-
Treatment of tris-azolium precursor 1 with palladium acetate under thermal conditions provided a CCC-pincer palladium(II) complex (2) bearing three NHCs (one imidazolylidene and two triazolylidenes) and one iodide ligand. Further treatment of complex 2 with an excess of AgSbF6 generates tris(carbene) dicationic palladium complex 3 in which the iodine ligands are exchanged with SbF6 anions and the metal center is stabilized by one acetonitrile ligand. Complexes 2 and 3 were tested in several cross coupling reactions showing high conversions under low catalyst loadings and mild reaction conditions. Additionally, complexes 2 and 3 performed well in the hydrosilylation of terminal alkynes with good selectivity toward the E-isomer.

- Chromium-catalyzed ligand-free amidation of esters with anilines

Amides are important structural motifs in pharmaceutical and agrochemical chemistry because of the intriguing biological active properties. We report here the amidation of commercially available esters with anilines that was promoted by low-cost and air-stable chromium(III) pre-catalyst combined with magnesium, providing access to amides. This reaction occurs without the use of external ligands in a simple operation. Mechanistic studies indicate that a reactive aminated Cr species responsible for the amidation can be considered, which may be formed by reaction of low-valent Cr with aniline followed by reduction with hydrogen evolution.

- Manganese Catalyzed Direct Amidation of Esters with Amines
-
The transition metal catalyzed amide bond forming reaction of esters with amines has been developed as an advanced approach for overcoming the shortcomings of traditional methods. The broad scope of substrates in transition metal catalyzed amidations remains a challenge. Here, a manganese(I)-catalyzed method for the direct synthesis of amides from a various number of esters and amines is reported with unprecedented substrate scope using a low catalyst loading. A wide range of aromatic, aliphatic, and heterocyclic esters, even in fatty acid esters, reacted with a diverse range of primary aryl amines, primary alkyl amines, and secondary alkyl amines to form amides. It is noteworthy that this approach provides the first example of the transition metal catalyzed amide bond forming reaction from fatty acid esters and amines. The acid-base mechanism for the manganese(I)-catalyzed direct amidation of esters with amines was elucidated by DFT calculations.

- A practical and sustainable protocol for direct amidation of unactivated esters under transition-metal-free and solvent-free conditions
-
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.

A sustainable and environmentally benign direct amidation reaction of unactivated esters with amines has been developed in a continuous-flow system. A commercially available amorphous zirconium oxide was found to be an efficient catalyst for this reaction. While the typical amidation of esters with amines requires a stoichiometric amount of a promoter or metal activator, the present continuous-flow method enabled the direct amidation reaction under additive-free conditions with an extensive diversity towards various functional groups. High yields of the products were obtained with a nearly equimolar proportion of starting materials to reduce byproduct formation, which renders this process applicable for use in a sequential-flow system.

- Efficient base-free hydrodehalogenation of organic halides catalyzed by a well-defined diphosphine-ruthenium(II) complex

A base-free, robust catalytic system based on the diphosphine-ruthenium(II) complex cation has been developed for the hydrodehalogenation of a wide range of aryl- and alkyl-chlorides/bromides (27 examples) with molecule hydrogen. Notably, the reaction proceeds at 120 °C with low catalyst loading (0.1 mol%) and exhibits a good tolerance toward functional groups, such as amido, carboxyl, sulfonyl, methoxyl, ester groups. All dehalogenation products are confirmed by GC, GC–MS and NMR spectroscopy. Moreover, a mechanism for the diphosphine-ruthenium(II) complex cation catalyzed dehalogenation process has been proposed. This hydrodehalogenation methodology shows a potential application for the organic transformation and degradation of organic halides.

- Beckmann rearrangement of ketoximes promoted by cyanuric chloride and dimethyl sulfoxide under a mild condition
-
Synthesis of amides via Beckmann rearrangement of ketoximes promoted by cyanuric chloride (TCT)/DMSO under mild conditions has been reported. Conditions of the Beckmann rearrangement, e.g., solvents, the ratios of TCT/DMSO, and the temperature, were investigated using diphenylmethanone oxime as a substrate. The optimized conditions were adopted to afford fourteen amides with yields ranging from 20% to 99%. A plausible mechanism involving an active dimethyl alkoxysulfonium intermediate was proposed according to the mass spectrometry analysis. To our best knowledge, this is the first case of study on Beckmann rearrangement of ketoximes promoted by TCT/DMSO under a mild condition to afford amides efficiently.

- Ethyl 2-Cyano-2-(2-nitrobenzenesulfonyloxyimino) Acetate (ortho-NosylOXY)-Mediated Double Beckmann Rearrangement of Ketoximes under Microwave Irradiation: A Mechanistic Perception
-
A method for Beckmann rearrangement using ethyl 2-cyano-2-(2-nitrobenzenesulfonyloxyimino) acetate (o-NosylOXY) under microwave irradiation is reported. Ketoximes (19 examples) are converted to the corresponding amides/lactams with 69–97% yields in ~10 minutes without any Lewis acid or co-catalyst. This is an example of halogen-free organocatalytic Beckmann rearrangement. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)- and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS)-based detailed mechanistic investigation suggest that o-NosylOXY acts as an initiator. Such initiators are reported before based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations. However, we report here the HRMS signatures of two transient intermediates, the nitrilium ion and the nitrilium ion's dimeric species. Rigorous NMR-based investigation of the reaction mechanism is performed. Our results indicate that the reported Beckmann rearrangement proceeds via two consecutive rearrangements.

- Crystal structure of 1-(2,4,6-trichlorobenzoyloxy) benzotriazole (TCB-OBt): observation of uncommon intermolecular oxygen-oxygen interaction and synthetic application in amidation
-
Herein, we investigated the supramolecular assembly of a modified Yamaguchi reagent TCB-OBt. Interestingly, each molecule is interconnected through novel chalcogen-chalcogen (O?O) interaction, π-π stacking, and aromatic C-H?O interaction. Hirshfeld surface analysis confirmed the existence of uncommon O?O interactions. A well-organized supramolecular layer structure and helical arrangement were observed in the crystal structure. TCB-OBt crystallized in the O-substituted desmotropic form. DFT calculations suggest that the O-substituted form is more stable than theN-substituted form (TCB-(N)-OBt). Morphology analysis indicates the formation of a fantastically well organized, continuous block-shaped system. Furthermore, the designed reagent works as an efficient activating reagent for amide bond formation with good yields under mild reaction conditions. Use of this reagent avoided intractable acid chlorides, and this new mixed-anhydride-based reagent may further be applicable for many other organic transformations.

Hence, this study provides an alternative catalytic system for the construction of a wide range of amides with readily available materials. Moreover, the strategy was successfully applied in the preparation of N-(3-(2,6-dimethoxyphenoxy)-7-nitroquinoxalin-2-yl)benzohydrazide, which displayed a signification anti-proliferation effect on A549, MCF-7 and HCT116 cell lines.

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.

- Sustainable triazine-based dehydro-condensation agents for amide synthesis
-
Conventional methods employed today for the synthesis of amides often lack of economic and environmental sustainability. Triazine-derived quaternary ammonium salts, e.g., 4-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-4-methylmorpholinium chloride (DMTMM(Cl)), emerged as promising dehydro-condensation agents for amide synthesis, although suffering of limited stability and high costs. In the present work, a simple protocol for the synthesis of amides mediated by 2-chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine (CDMT) and a tert-amine has been described and data are compared to DMTMM(Cl) and other CDMT-derived quaternary ammonium salts (DMT-Ams(X), X: Cl? or ClO4?). Different tert-amines (Ams) were tested for the synthesis of various DMT-Ams(Cl), but only DMTMM(Cl) could be isolated and employed for dehydro-condensation reactions, while all CDMT/tert-amine systems tested were efficient as dehydro-condensation agents. Interestingly, in best reaction conditions, CDMT and 1,4-dimethylpiperazine gave N-phenethyl benzamide in 93% yield in 15 min, with up to half the amount of tert-amine consumption. The efficiency of CDMT/tert-amine was further compared to more stable triazine quaternary ammonium salts having a perchlorate counter anion (DMT-Ams(ClO4)). Overall CDMT/tert-amine systems appear to be a viable and more economical alternative to most dehydro-condensation agents employed today.

- Bio-evaluation of fluoro and trifluoromethyl-substituted salicylanilides against multidrug-resistant S. aureus
-
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) are primary causes of skin and soft tissue infections worldwide. To address the emergency caused due to increasing multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections, a series of novel fluoro and trifluoromethyl-substituted salicylanilide derivatives were synthesized and their antimicrobial activity was investigated. MIC data reveal that the compounds inhibited S. aureus specifically (MIC 0.25–64 μg/mL). The in vitro cytotoxicity of compounds with MIC 1 μg/mL against Vero cells led to identification of four compounds (20, 22, 24 and 25) with selectivity index above 10. These four compounds were tested against MDR S. aureus panel. Remarkably, 5-chloro-N-(4’-bromo-3’-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2-hydroxybenzamide (22) demonstrated excellent activity against nine MRSA and three VRSA strains with MIC 0.031–0.062 μg/mL, which is significantly better than the control drugs methicillin and vancomycin. The comparative time–kill kinetic experiment revealed that the effect of bacterial killing of 22 is comparable with vancomycin. Compound 22 did not synergize with or antagonize any FDA-approved antibiotic and reduced pre-formed S. aureus biofilm better than vancomycin. Overall, study suggested that 22 could be further developed as a potent anti-staphylococcal therapeutic. [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

- NaOTs-promoted transition metal-free C-N bond cleavage to form C-X (X = N, O, S) bonds
-
Multifunctional transformation of amide C-N bond cleavage is reported. The protocol applies to benzamide, thioamide, alcohols, and mercaptan under similar reaction conditions catalyzed by NaOTs. It is noteworthy that NaOTs can not only be recycled and reused for up to three cycles without significant loss in catalytic activity, but also catalyze gram-grade reactions. This study provides a novel solution with mild conditions and a simple procedure for transformation of multiple amides.

- Nickel-Catalyzed Reductive Cross-Coupling of N-Acyl and N-Sulfonyl Benzotriazoles with Diverse Nitro Compounds: Rapid Access to Amides and Sulfonamides
-
Herein we report a Ni-catalyzed reductive transamidation of conveniently available N-acyl benzotriazoles with alkyl, alkenyl, and aryl nitro compounds, which afforded various amides with good yields and a broad substrate scope. The same catalytic reaction conditions were also applicable for N-sulfonyl benzotriazoles, which could undergo smooth reductive coupling with nitroarenes and nitroalkanes to afford the corresponding sulfonamides.

- Solar and visible-light active nano Ni/g-C3N4photocatalyst for carbon monoxide (CO) and ligand-free carbonylation reactions
-
In this study, we investigate the amino and alkoxycarbonylation reaction between various substituted aryl halides, benzyl iodides, and iodocyclohexane with different types of amines and alcohols in the absence of carbon monoxide gas and ligands. Similar reactions are carried out at high temperatures, in the presence of appropriate ligands, stoichiometric amounts of bases, and gaseous carbon monoxide, which endanger the health of organic chemists. We present a novel method that does not utilize ligands, bases, gaseous CO, and special conditions. This procedure is a redox reaction carried out by new economic nano Ni/g-C3N4at room temperature and under visible light. Mo(CO)6was used toin situgenerate CO, to resolve the problems caused by the use of CO gas. This protocol has the ability to be used on a gram scale by using a continuous flow reactor.

- Electrophotocatalytic C?H Heterofunctionalization of Arenes
-
The electrophotocatalytic heterofunctionalization of arenes is described. Using 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanoquinone (DDQ) under a mild electrochemical potential with visible-light irradiation, arenes undergo oxidant-free hydroxylation, alkoxylation, and amination with high chemoselectivity. In addition to batch reactions, an electrophotocatalytic recirculating flow process is demonstrated, enabling the conversion of benzene to phenol on a gram scale.

- Possible competitive modes of decarboxylation in the annulation reactions ofortho-substituted anilines and arylglyoxylates
-
Annulation reactions ofortho-substituted anilines and arylglyoxylates in the presence of K2S2O8at 80 °C under metal-free neutral conditions have been investigated, which extended a platform for the tandem synthesis of nitrogen heterocycles. While arylglyoxylic acids are known to undergo decarboxylation to form an acyl radical in the presence of K2S2O8and used in the Minisci acylation of electron-deficient (hetero)aromatics, their reactions with electron-richortho-substituted anilines to form nitrogen heterocycles have recently been studied. Depending upon the experimental conditions used in the reactions, the mechanism of the formation of heterocycles involving reactions of an acyl radical or aryl iminocarboxylic acids has been postulated. Given the subtle understanding of the mechanisms of annulation reactions of 2-substituted anilines and arylglyoxylates in the presence of K2S2O8, an extensive mechanistic investigation was undertaken. In the current study, the various mechanistic pathways including the generation of acyl, imidoyl, aminal, and N,O-hemiketal radicals have been postulated based on different possible decarboxylation modes. Some of the proposed intermediates are supported based on the available analytical data. The protocol uses a single, inexpensive reagent K2S2O8, which offers not only transition-metal-free conditions but also serves as the reagent for the key decarboxylation step. Taken together, this study complements the current development of the annulation reactions of 2-substituted anilines and arylglyoxylates in terms of synthesis and mechanistic understanding.

- Regioselective Synthesis of 2° Amides Using Visible-Light-Induced Photoredox-Catalyzed Nonaqueous Oxidative C-N Cleavage of N, N-Dibenzylanilines
-
A visible-light-driven photoredox-catalyzed nonaqueous oxidative C-N cleavage of N,N-dibenzylanilines to 2° amides is reported. Further, we have applied this protocol on 2-(dibenzylamino)benzamide to afford quinazolinones with (NH4)2S2O8 as an additive. Mechanistic studies imply that the reaction might undergo in situ generation of α-amino radical to imine by C-N bond cleavage followed by the addition of superoxide ion to form amides.

- Room-temperature copper-catalyzed electrophilic amination of arylcadmium iodides with ketoximes
-
We started our study by preparation two ketoximes. Later, there were studies to reveal these ketoximes' effects in the electrophilic amination reaction with organocadmium reagents. Primarily, it was observed that arylcadmium iodides could not be reacted with ketoximes at room temperature in the absence of a catalyst. CuCN was a suitable catalyst for this electrophilic amination reaction of arylcadmium iodides and allowed the preparation of functionalized aniline derivatives in good yields under mild reaction conditions. We obtained the results indicated that the yield of primary arylamines was strongly dependent on the steric and electronic effects of organocadmium reagent and amination agent. In the case of both amination reagents, meta-substituted arylamines were obtained in higher yields than para-substituted arylamines. We observed that acetone O-(4-chlorophenylsulfonyl)oxime, 1, as an aminating agent, was more successful than acetone O-(2-Naphthylsulfonyl)oxime, 2, in the synthesis of functionalized arylamines by electrophilic amination of corresponding aryl cadmium iodides. In this method, there is no cadmium release to the environment.

- High yielding electrophilic amination with lower order and?higher order organocuprates: Application of acetone O-(4-Chlorophenylsulfonyl)oxime in the construction of the C?N bond at room temperature
-
Electrophilic amination reaction was performed with lower order and?higher order organocuprates using acetone O-(4-Chlorophenylsulfonyl)oxime (1). It was proceeded smoothly at room temperature in the presence of organocuprates to provide the corresponding primary amines in good yields with 10 and 60 min, respectively. The primary amine yields of the electrophilic amination of bromomagnesium organocyanocuprates and dibromomagnesium diorganocyanocuprates were obtained 52–72% and 58–83%, respectively. We observed that higher order organocuprates were more successful than lower order organocuprates in the synthesis of functionalized arylamines by electrophilic amination.

- Tungsten-Catalyzed Transamidation of Tertiary Alkyl Amides
-
Transamidation has recently emerged as a straightforward and convenient means to diversify amides. However, the kinetically and thermodynamically demanding transamidation of notoriously robust, fully alkyl-substituted tertiary amides still remains a longstanding challenge. Here, we describe a method for the activation of tertiary alkyl amides to streamline transamidation using simple tungsten(VI) chloride as a catalyst and chlorotrimethylsilane as an additive. The highly electrophilic and oxophilic tungsten catalyst enables the selective scission of a C-N bond of tertiary alkyl amides to effect transamidation of a myriad of structurally and electronically diverse tertiary alkyl amides and amines. Mechanistic study implies that the synergistic effect of the catalyst and the additive could pronouncedly induce the nucleophilic acyl substitution of tertiary alkyl amide with amine to realize transamidation.

- Nickel-Catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling Involving C?O Bond Activation
-
An efficient Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of ortho-phenoxy-substituted aromatic amides with aryl boronates is described. The use of LiOtBu is crucial for the success of the reaction. An amidate anion, which is formed through deprotonation of the amide NH bond by LiOtBu, functions as a directing group to activate a C?O bond.

- Carboxylic Acid Deoxyfluorination and One-Pot Amide Bond Formation Using Pentafluoropyridine (PFP)
-
This work describes the application of pentafluoropyridine (PFP), a cheap commercially available reagent, in the deoxyfluorination of carboxylic acids to acyl fluorides. The acyl fluorides can be formed from a range of acids under mild conditions. We also demonstrate that PFP can be utilized in a one-pot amide bond formation via in situ generation of acyl fluorides. This one-pot deoxyfluorination amide bond-forming reaction gives ready access to amides in yields of ≤94%.

- Supported-Pd catalyzed tandem approach for N-arylbenzamides synthesis
-
Aryl iodides as dual arylating agent for C-terminal from oxalic acid [(CO2H)2] and N-terminal from sodium azide (NaN3) for N-aryl benzamides (Ar-CO-NH-Ar) synthesis is a rare invention which has been attempted successfully under this study. A single step tandem approach for the synthesis of N-aryl benzamides has been developed through bifunctional transformation of aryl iodides with in-situ CO from (CO2H)2 and NaN3 following two different pathways of carbonylation and azidation. The polystyrene supported palladium (Pd@PS) catalyst was found to be well compatible to perform the domino-reaction in a double layer vial (DLV) system under base, ligand and additive-free conditions. Moreover, the same approach was further extended with aryl azides for unsymmetric N-aryl benzamides (Ar-CO-NH-Ar') synthesis. Furthermore, the DFT studies were also performed to support the proposed mechanism.

- Hypervalent Iodine Reagent-Promoted Hofmann-Type Rearrangement/Carboxylation of Primary Amides
-
A novel transformation of primary amides to secondary amides promoted by hypervalent iodine reagents was developed. The hypervalent iodine reagent-mediated Hofmann-type rearrangement generated an isocyanate intermediate, which was subsequently trapped by an in situ generated carboxylic acid from the hypervalent iodine reagent to provide the corresponding secondary amides. This method provided a facile and efficient route for the synthesis of secondary amides from primary amides and also revealed novel reactivities of hypervalent iodine reagents.

- Palladium Catalyzed Cascade Azidation/Carbonylation of Aryl Halides with Sodium Azide for the Synthesis of Amides
-
Amide synthesis is one of the most important transformations in organic chemistry due to their ubiquitous presence in our daily life. In this communication, a palladium catalyzed cascade azidation/carbonylation of aryl halides for the synthesis of amides was developed. Both iodo- and bromobenzene derivatives were transformed to the corresponding amides using PdCl2/xantphos as the catalyst system and sodium azide as the nitrogen-source. The reaction proceeds via a cascade azidation/carbonylation process. A range of alkyl and halogen substituted amides were prepared in moderate to good yields.

- Ni-catalyzed reductive decyanation of nitriles with ethanol as the reductant
-
A nickel-catalyzed reductive decyanation of aromatic nitriles has been developed, in which the readily available and abundant ethanol was applied as the hydride donor. Various functional groups on the aromatic rings, such as alkoxyl, amino, imino and amide, were compatible in this catalytic protocol. Heteroaryl, benzylic and alkenyl nitriles were also tolerated. Mechanistic investigation indicated that ethanol provided hydride efficientlyviaβ-hydride elimination in this reductive decyanation.

- Redox-Neutral Imination of Alcohol with Azide: A Sustainable Alternative to the Staudinger/Aza-Wittig Reaction
-
The traditional Staudinger/aza-Wittig reaction represents one of the most powerful tools for imine formation. However, for this multistep procedure, the sacrificial phosphine has to be used, resulting in difficulties in the purification process and waste disposal at the same time. Here, we report a redox-neutral azide-alcohol imination methodology enabled by a base-metal nickel PN3 pincer catalyst. The one-step, waste-free, and high atom-economical features highlight its advantages further. Moreover, mechanistic insight suggests a non-metal-ligand cooperation pathway based on the observation of an intermediate and density functional theory calculations.

- Practical one-pot amidation of N -Alloc-, N -Boc-, and N -Cbz protected amines under mild conditions
-
A facile one-pot synthesis of amides from N-Alloc-, N-Boc-, and N-Cbz-protected amines has been described. The reactions involve the use of isocyanate intermediates, which are generated in situ in the presence of 2-chloropyridine and trifluoromethanesulfonyl anhydride, to react with Grignard reagents to produce the corresponding amides. Using this reaction protocol, a variety of N-Alloc-, N-Boc-, and N-Cbz-protected aliphatic amines and aryl amines were efficiently converted to amides with high yields. This method is highly effective for the synthesis of amides and offers a promising approach for facile amidation.
