One-pot synthesis of N-tert-butyl amides from alcohols, ethers and esters using ZnCl2/SiO2 as a recyclable heterogeneous catalyst
摘要:
ZnCl2/SiO2 has been found to be an efficient and reusable catalyst for conversion of alcohols, ethers and esters to corresponding amides via the Ritter reaction in high yield. It was found that benzonitrile reacted with tert-butyl acetate faster than the other sources of tert-butyl carbocation. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
Herein described is a nickel-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of aryl/alkenyl/allyl (pseudo)halides with isocyanides, providing aryl/alkenyl/allyl amides in 41% to 92% yields. Functional groups such as F, Cl, OMe, and heteroaromatic rings are compatible in the reaction. A Ni(0)/Ni(II) catalytic cycle is proposed based on preliminary experiments and previous literature. The reaction features readily available
Amides can be prepared from allyl or benzyl halides and primary or secondary amines, using Pd(O) catalyst under CO pressure, in a one-pot synthesis. The reaction proceeds through the acyl palladium halide formation which undergoes an acylic nucleophilic substitution from the amine. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Amide-directed hydrocarbonylation of 3-butenamide (1) catalyzed by rhodium complexes such as RhCl(PPh3)3, RhCl(CO)(PPh3)2, HRh(CO)(PPh3)3, and Rh4(CO)12 gives a mixture of 3,4-dihydro-2-pyridone (2), 4-methyl-3-pyrrolin-2-one (3), and a unique heterodimer, 6-(4-methyl-2-oxo-3-pyrrolin-1-yl)-2-piperidone (4). Dihydropyridone (2) is obtained in 88% yield with 98% selectivity by using HRh(CO)(PPh)3-dppb (2 equiv) catalyst system while 4 is yielded in 90% yield with 94% selectivity with the use of RhCl(PPh3)3-P(OPh)3 (10 equiv) as the catalyst. Control experiments revealed that this crossed coupling only proceeds in the copresence of rhodium catalyst, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen. The reactions of N-benzyl-3-butenamide (1a) gives a mixture of 1-benzyldihydropyridone (2a), 1-benzyl-4-methylpyrrolinone (3a), and 1-benzyl-6-formyl-3,4-dihydropyridone (5) and its 5-formyl isomer (6). The formation of 5 and 6 is suppressed by the addition of PPh3, and 2a is selectively isolated (72%) in the reaction using RhCl(CO)(PPh3)2-PPh3 (20 equiv) as the catalyst. The hydroformylation of 2a catalyzed by RhCl(PPh3)3 gives 5 in 80% isolated yield. The reaction of N-tert-butyl-3-butenamide (1b) gives a nearly 1:1 mixture of 1-tert-butyl-4-methylpyrrolinone (3b) and uncyclized N-tert-butyl-4-formylbutanamide (7) accompanied by a small amount of 1-tert-butyldihydropyridone (2b). In the reaction of N-trityl-3-butenamide (1c), no dihydropyridone (2c) was formed, and a mixture of 1-trityl-4-methylpyrrolinone (3c) (major) and N-trityl-4-formylbutanamide (8) (minor) is yielded. The reaction of 4-pentenamide gives 4-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2-pyridone (9) exclusively regardless of the structure of the rhodium catalysts used. Possible mechanisms for these reactions are discussed.
