چکیده

Zirconocene dichloride (Cp(2)ZrCl(2)) has been shown to be an effective catalyst for the transamidation of primary amides with amines in cyclohexane at 80 °C in 5-24 hours. For favourable substrates, the reaction can be performed at temperatures as low as 30 °C.

Discovery and mechanistic study of Al(III)-catalyzed transamidation of tertiary amides.

Cleavage of the C-N bond of carboxamides generally requires harsh conditions. This study reveals that tris(amido)Al(III) catalysts, such as Al2(NMe2)6, promote facile equilibrium-controlled transamidation of tertiary carboxamides with secondary amines. The mechanism of these reactions was investigated by kinetic, spectroscopic, and density functional theory (DFT) computational methods. The cata...

Borate esters as convenient reagents for direct amidation of carboxylic acids and transamidation of primary amides.

Simple borates serve as effective promoters for amide bond formation with a variety of carboxylic acids and amines. With trimethyl or tris(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) borate, amides are obtained in good to excellent yield and high purity after a simple work-up procedure. Tris(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) borate can also be used for the straightforward conversion of primary amides to secondary amides via tra...

Molecular-oxygen-promoted Cu-catalyzed oxidative direct amidation of nonactivated carboxylic acids with azoles

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 inte...

Nickel-catalyzed transamidation of aliphatic amide derivatives.

Transamidation, or the conversion of one amide to another, is a long-standing challenge in organic synthesis. Although notable progress has been made in the transamidation of primary amides, the transamidation of secondary amides has remained underdeveloped, especially when considering aliphatic substrates. Herein, we report a two-step approach to achieve the transamidation of secondary aliphat...

Direct Synthesis of Amides from Carboxylic Acids and Amines Using B(OCH2CF3)3

B(OCH2CF3)3, prepared from readily available B2O3 and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, is as an effective reagent for the direct amidation of a variety of carboxylic acids with a broad range of amines. In most cases, the amide products can be purified by a simple filtration procedure using commercially available resins, with no need for aqueous workup or chromatography. The amidation of N-protected amin...
