Lithium Enolates Derived from Weinreb Amides: Insights into Five-Membered Chelate Rings
Houghton, Michael J.,Collum, David B.
, p. 11057 - 11064 (2016)
Enolization of O-methyl hydroxamic acids (Weinreb amides) in tetrahydrofuran solution with lithium diisopropylamide affords predominantly tetrameric enolates. Aryl substituents on the enolates promote deaggregation. The aggregation states are assigned by

We describe an efficient photoredox system, relying on decatungstate/disulfide catalysts, for the hydrofunctionalization of styrenes. In this methodology the use of disulfide as a cocatalyst was shown to be crucial for the reaction efficiency. This photoredox system was employed for the hydro-carbamoylation, -acylation, -alkylation, and -silylation of styrenes, giving access to a large variety of useful building blocks and high-value molecules such as amides and unsymmetrical ketones from simple starting materials.
Nickel-catalyzed: C-alkylation of thioamide, amides and esters by primary alcohols through a hydrogen autotransfer strategy

A simple catalyst of Ni(OAc)2 and P(t-Bu)3 enables selective C-alkylation of thioacetamides and primary acetamides with alcohols for the first time. Monoalkylation of thioamides, amides and t-butyl esters occurs in excellent yields (>95%). Mechanistic studies reveal that the reaction proceeds via a hydrogen autotransfer pathway. This journal is
