Amides are indispensable building blocks of biological systems, pharmaceuticals, and materials. We report a highly selective method for the synthesis of amides via transamidation process. Transamidation of N-acyl-2-piperidones with a broad range of amines is demonstrated under exceedingly mild and metal-free reaction condition that relies on the amide bond twist to weaken the amidic resonance. Transamidation proceeds under the neat condition at room temperature, in short reaction times (30–90 min) with good yields. Considerable variation is tolerated with both amine and imide substrates. Of note, amines bearing carboxylic acids (glycine and serine) and hydroxyl groups (dopamine, tyramine, etc.) are well tolerated which are otherwise problematic under the metal-catalyzed protocol. Our current method is applicable for transamidation of both alkyl and aryl-N-acyl-2-piperidones. The practical value of the method is highlighted by the synthesis of four natural product amide alkaloids in high yields under mild reaction conditions. In the absence of nucleophilic amines, N-acyl-2-piperidones undergoes esterification with EtOH at elevated temperature. Single crystal X-ray analysis of an N-acyl-2-piperidone shows amide bond twist, τ = –20.39° and pyramidalization, χN = –11.73°. This weakens the amidic conjugation and might be the factor controlling the reactivity and selectivity of these imides. We envision that the N-acyl-2-piperidone scaffold would be useful in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and materials.

A series of 30 compounds were synthetized inspired by active trans-fagaramide structure skeleton. On this synthetic platform, 18 compounds were achieved via Knoevenagel condensation using maleic acid and piperonal, followed by peptide coupling with various amines, giving an average yield of 54%. Subsequently, nine compounds were obtained by palladium-mediated Heck coupling with an average yield of 79%. In addition, cytotoxic activity was evaluated against cardiomyoblast H9c2, breast adenocarcinoma MCF7, hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2, and glioblastoma U-87 cells. The results revealed two aryl halogen-substituted compounds moderately active against H9c2 and MCF7 with IC50 values > 50 μM. One functionalized coumarin showed inhibitory activity against H9c2 (IC50 > 50 μM). In contrast, p-aminophenyl-β-monosubstituted trans-fagaramide was found to inhibit MCF7 (IC50 > 50 μM) without showing toxicity against H9c2 cells.
Three-component synthesis of (E)-α,β-unsaturated amides of the piperine family

Selective formation of (E)-α,β-unsaturated amides by intermolecular three-component reaction between aldehydes, amines (1° or 2°) and ketenylidenetriphenylphosphorane (Ph3P=C=C=O) is described. Natural amides such as fagaramide and piperines could be prepared from immediately available educts. The method is shown to be extendable to the preparation of thioesters from thiols and aldehydes.
