Molecular-oxygen-promoted Cu-catalyzed oxidative direct amidation of nonactivated carboxylic acids with azoles
نویسندگان
چکیده
A copper-catalyzed oxidative direct formation of amides from nonactivated carboxylic acids and azoles with dioxygen as an activating reagent is reported. The azole amides were produced in good to excellent yields with a broad substrate scope. The mechanistic studies reveal that oxygen plays an essential role in the success of the amidation reactions with copper peroxycarboxylate as the key intermediate. Transamidation occurs smoothly between azole amide and a variety of amines.

Aerobic Copper-Catalyzed O-Methylation with Methylboronic Acid.
The oxidative coupling of alkylboronic acids with oxygen nucleophiles offers a strategy for replacing toxic, electrophilic alkylating reagents. Although the Chan-Lam reaction has been widely applied in the arylation of heteroatom nucleophiles, O-alkylation with boronic acids is rare. We report a Cu-catalyzed nondecarboxylative methylation of carboxylic acids with methylboronic acid that proceed...
متن کاملMicrowave-assisted Cu-catalyzed protodecarboxylation of aromatic carboxylic acids.
An effective protocol has been developed that allows the smooth protodecarboxylation of diversely functionalized aromatic carboxylic acids within 5-15 min. In the presence of at most 5 mol % of an inexpensive catalyst generated in situ from copper(I) oxide and 1,10-phenanthroline, even nonactivated benzoates were converted in high yields and with great preparative ease.

A Cu-catalyzed aromatic C-H amidation with phthalimide under oxygen as a terminal oxidant without using additional additives has been achieved. This reaction has the broad substrate scope and shows moderate to good yields in most cases. This method is complementary to the previously reported metal-catalyzed C-H amination systems.
متن کاملCopper-catalyzed direct thiolation of azoles with aliphatic thiols.
Cu(II)-catalyzed direct thiolation of azoles with thiols is described via intermolecular C-S bond formation/C-H functionalization under oxidative conditions. Both aryl thiols and aliphatic thiols are used as coupling partners, and furnished the thiolation products in moderate to good yields. The reaction is compatible with a wide range of heterocycles including oxazole, thiazole, imidazole and ...

We have used tungestophosphoric acid to catalyze oxidative amidation reaction from benzyl alcohols and methylarens with hydrochloride salts of amines. To achieve this purpose, modified magnetic nanoparticles (γ-Fe2O3@SiO2@H3PW12O40) were applied as catalyst and TBHP as external oxidant. After optimizing, different derivates of be...
