N-Methylated amides (N,4-dimethylbenzamide and N-methylcyclohexanecarboxamide) were systematically subjected to chemical transformations, namely, N-tosylation followed by nucleophilic substitution. The amide function was converted to the corresponding carboxylic acid, esters, amides, aldehyde, and ketone upon treatment with hydroxide, alkoxide, amine, diisobutylaluminium hydride and Grignard reagent, respectively. In these transformations, N-methyl-N-tosylcarboxamides behave like a Weinreb amide. Similarly, N-methyl-5-phenylisoxazole-3-carboxamide was converted into 3-functionalized isoxazole derivatives. Since the amide was prepared by the cycloaddition reaction of ethynylbenzene and N-methylcarbamoylnitrile oxide, the nitrile oxide served as the equivalent of the nitrile oxides bearing a variety of functional groups such as carboxy, alkoxycarbonyl, carbamoyl, acyl and formyl moieties.

2-Acyl-1-methyl-1H-imidazoles (3) were prepared in good yields by treating 1-acylpyrrolidines (5) with 2-lithio-1-methyl-1H-imidazole (2) at -78 deg C.The acyl group of 3 was very stable under various severe conditions, but 2-benzoylimidazole (3a) was gradually hydrolyzed by heating with 1.3 N NaOH to produce benzoic acid and 1-methyl-1H-imidazole.Acyl activation of 3 was performed by direct quaternization of 3 with iodomethane or dimethyl sulfate or more successfully by quaternization of the corresponding O-trimethylsilylated gem-cyanohydrin (11) with dimethyl sulfate.Keywords- acylimidazole; 2-acylimidazole; imidazolium salt; acyl group activation; acylation; C-C bond fission; protecting group; latent functionality
