The metal-free catalytic hydrogenation of secondary carboxylic acid amides is developed. The reduction is realized by two new catalytic reactions. First, the amide is converted into the imidoyl chloride by triphosgene (CO(OCCl3)2) using novel phosphorus(V) catalysts. Second, the in situ generated imidoyl chlorides are hydrogenated in high yields by an FLP-catalyst. Mechanistic and quantum mechanical calculations support an autoinduced catalytic cycle for the hydrogenation with chloride acting as unusual Lewis base for FLP-mediated H2-activation.

A novel approach to α-amino-α-cyanophosphonates has been developed. The method features a Tf2O-mediated reductive geminal cyanation/phosphonylation of secondary amides. Mild reaction conditions, high bond-forming efficiency, inexpensive readily available starting materials, and good to excellent yields with wide functional group compatibility constitute the main advantages of this method. The protocol can be run on a gram scale.

A One-Pot tandem Schmidt–Ritter process for the synthesis of amides has been developed using the super acid as catalyst. The in situ generated aryl/aliphatic nitriles from the reaction of aldehydes and sodium azide in the presence of TfOH and AcOH (Schmidt reaction) react with suitable alcohol (Ritter reaction) to give the amides. For the first time we observed that during the Schmidt process N-acylimides were generated along with nitriles, interestingly these N-acylimides also participated in the Ritter reaction.
