however oxidative couplings involving amide bonds and functionalization of thioamide C(S)–N analogues remain an unsolved challenge. Herein, a novel hypervalent iodine-induced twofold oxidative coupling of amines with amides and thioamides has been established. The protocol accomplishes divergent C(O)–N and C(S)–N disconnection by the previously unknown Ar–O and Ar–S oxidative coupling and highly chemoselectively

An efficient transition-metal-free amination of benzoxazoles has been developed. With catalytic amounts of tetrabutylammoniumiodide (TBAI), aqueous solutions of H2O2 or TBHP as co-oxidant and undermild reaction conditions, highly desirable 2-aminobenzoxazoles were isolated in excellent yields of up to 93%. First mechanistic experiments indicate the in situ iodination of the secondary amine as the
已经开发出有效的无过渡金属苯并恶唑胺化的方法。用催化量的四丁基碘化铵(TBAI),H 2 O 2或TBHP水溶液作为助氧化剂,并在温和的反应条件下,以高达93%的优异收率分离出了非常理想的2-氨基苯并恶唑。最初的机械实验表明,仲胺的原位碘化是假定的活化方式。
