FeCl 3 -catalyzed selective acylation of amines with 1,3-diketones via C–C bond cleavage

Crystal structure of 3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-N-phenylpropanamide, C16H17NO3

“…The title compound was obtained as colorless crystals (21 mg, 39%) with a melting temperature of 402 K (129°C). The compound is known and its spectral data correspond to those reported in literature [2]. Single crystals were obtained by slow evaporation from ethyl acetate.…”

Synthesis of acetamides via oxidative C–C bond cleavage of ketones catalyzed by Cu‐immobilized magnetic nanoparticles

“…[23] The concept explored further in the following years, but there are several drawbacks and limitations in the reported protocols such as narrow scope, high activity of ketone substrate, hazardous and expensive reagents, and use of radical initiators. [24][25][26][27][28][29] Moreover, in spite of the application of many homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts designed for this process, almost all of them could not overcome the obstacle of inactivity of the simple ketones in the procedure. [24][25][26][27] Recently a novel protocol for synthesis of amides from ketones taking advantage of the C-C bond cleavage strategy has been devised which avoids This article is dedicated to memory of Naser Shabani.…”

Practical Pd(TFA)2-Catalyzed Aerobic [4+1] Annulation for the Synthesis of Pyrroles via “One-Pot” Cascade Reactions

“…To continue our research on C-N bond forming reactions [59][60][61][62][63][64][65], we sought to broaden dicarbonyl scope and study the application of the cycloaddition products found as key intermediates in the synthesis of biologically active compounds. Herein, we present a full account of our recent work on the Pd-catalyzed [4+1] annulation reaction.…”
