Facile Amide Bond Formation from Carboxylic Acids and Isocyanates

Abstract: A wide variety of carboxylic acids in the form of their salts condense with aryl isocyanates at room temperature with loss of carbon dioxide to give the corresponding amides in high yield. Application of the reaction to acyl isocyanates gives unsymmetric imides. The reaction is compatible with hydroxyl groups and both Fmoc and Boc protecting groups for amines and is applicable to aliphatic, aromatic, and heteroaromatic acids.

“…Based on the IR results, the probable structure of PSS-PPDI with a sulfonamide derivative was obtained as a product of the reaction between the isocyanate functions and a sulfonic acid group (Fig. 2), which is matched analogically with the reaction between a carboxylic acid group and an isocyanate function leading to an unstable carbamic anhydride which decomposes to an amide and carbon dioxide (Hawkins et al, 1997;Sugama et al, 1988;Nabuurs et al, 1999;Melchiors et al, 2000;Sasaki & Crich, 2011).…”

“…Still, some disadvantages such as low product yields, longer reaction time, high reactant amount, lack of catalyst recyclability, contamination of the product due to catalyst leaching, and the formation of undesirable products in stoichiometric amounts are associated with these methods. As a result, the heterogeneous catalysts which are highly efficient, ecologically correct, recyclable, and environment‐friendly are most demanding for advanced catalytic methods for the solvent‐free aminolysis of triglycerides . Biochar‐based (catalyst 6 wt%, yield 98%, reaction time 2.5 hours), zirconia‐alumina nanocatalyst (catalyst 3 wt%, yield 91.6%, reaction time 4 hours), spongy Ni/Fe carbonate‐fluorapatite (catalyst 9.5 wt%, yield 96%, reaction time 2 hours), sodium‐doped nanohydroxyapatite (catalyst 6 wt%, yield 98%, reaction time 2.5 hours), porous BaSnO 3 (catalyst 6 wt%, 96% yield, reaction time 2 hours), CaO/MCM‐41 nanocatalyst (catalyst 5 wt%, yield 96.8%, reaction time 6 hours), and alkali metal‐doped CaO‐based heterogeneous catalysts were reported for natural triglycerides conversion to fatty acid alkyl derivatives.…”

“…For example, a widely used method is condensation of an amine with an activated carboxylic acid functionality 3ae. More recently, coupling reactions that involve thioacids as alternatives to the carboxylic acid functionality,4 and azides,5ad sulfonamides,6ac isocyanates,7ac and isonitriles8 as alternatives to the amine nitrogen functionality have been developed. Amide formation by direct addition of Grignard reagent to isocyanate has also been reported 9.…”
