An efficient method to prepare amides by a cascade strategy was developed. Using nBu4NI or NaI as the catalyst and tert-butyl hydroperoxide as the oxidant, various alcohols reacted with N-hydroxysuccinimide or N-hydroxyphthalimide affording corresponding active esters in moderate to good yield. The resulting active esters were converted into amides smoothly in one pot.
开发了一种通过级联策略制备酰胺的有效方法。使用n Bu 4 NI或NaI作为催化剂,氢过氧化叔丁基作为氧化剂,各种醇与N-羟基琥珀酰亚胺或N-羟基邻苯二甲酰亚胺反应,以中等至良好的产率提供相应的活性酯。在一锅中将所得的活性酯平稳地转化为酰胺。
Copper-Catalyzed [3 + 2] Cycloaddition Reaction of <i>N</i>-Hydroxysuccinimide Ester with Isocyanoacetates for the Synthesis of 4,5-Disubstituted Oxazoles
The cycloaddition reaction of N-hydroxysuccinimide ester and isocyanatoacetate catalyzed by copper was described. A series of 4,5-disubstituted oxazole compounds, including ones derived from natural fatty acids, drugs, amino acids, and peptides, were obtained in moderate to high yields. The derivatization reaction was explored. The reaction mechanism was discussed.
