A direct amidation of carboxylicacids with tertiary amines could be carried out in the presence of the Ph3P–I2 activator. With an appropriate reagent addition sequence, a range of carboxylicacids including aliphatic, allylic, and aromatic acids could be converted into their corresponding tertiary amides under mild conditions without requirement of metal catalysis.
Homoleptic lanthanide complex Y[N(TMS)2]3 is an efficient homogeneous catalyst for the hydroboration reduction of secondary amides and tertiary amides to corresponding amines. A series of amides containing different functional groups such as cyano, nitro, and vinyl groups were found to be well-tolerated. This transformation has also been nicely applied to the synthesis of indoles and piribedil. Detailed

followed by the Buchwald–Hartwigamination with in situ released lithium amides is presented. In this work amides are used as masked ketones, revealed by the addition of organolithium reagents which generates a lithium amide, suitable for subsequent Buchwald–Hartwig coupling in the presence of a palladium catalyst. This methodology allows for rapid, efficient and atom economic synthesis of aminoarylketones

A solvent-free cross-coupling method for oxidative amidation of aldehydes and alcohols via a metal-free radial pathway has been demonstrated. The proposed methodology uses the TBAI-TBHP combination which efficiently induces metal-free C–H activation of aldehydes under neat conditions at 50 °C or ball-milling conditions at room temperature.
An expeditious and practical method for the reduction of amides to amines is reported. The method is consisted of activation of amides with Tf2O followed by reduction with sodium borohydride in THF at room temperature. Various amides/lactams gave the corresponding amines in good to excellent yields, even with hindered amides and secondary amides. This method also presents other advantages such as TBDPS-group tolerance, short reaction time, simple workup and purification procedure.
