Abstract
Chemoselective α-acylation of tertiary amides proceeded with highly electrophilic acid anhydrides and weak bases under mild conditions. β-Ketoamides containing trifluoroacetyl or perfluoroacyl groups were selectively obtained even in the presence of other functional groups such as ketone, ester, etc. Density functional theory calculations suggest that 1-acyloxyenamine is the key intermediate for the chemoselective α-acylation.

Abstract
A novel strategy for the stereospecific Pd-catalyzed acylative cross-coupling of enantiomerically enriched alkylboron compounds has been developed. The protocol features an extremely high level of enantiospecificity to allow facile access to synthetically challenging and valuable chiral ketones and carboxylic acid derivatives. The use of a sterically encumbered and electron-rich phosphine ligand proved to be crucial for the success of the reaction. Furthermore, on the basis of experimental and computational studies, a unique mechanism for the transmetalation, assisted by the noncovalent interactions of the C(sp3)-based organoboron reagent, has been identified.

Abstract
In contrast to ketones and carboxylic esters, amides are classically seen as comparatively unreactive members of the carbonyl family, owing to their unique structural and electronic features. However, recent decades have seen the emergence of research programmes focused on the selective activation of amides under mild conditions. In the past four years, this area has continued to rapidly develop, with new advances coming in at a fast pace. Several novel activation strategies have been demonstrated as effective tools for selective amide activation, enabling transformations that are at once synthetically useful and mechanistically intriguing. This Minireview comprises recent advances in the field, highlighting new trends and breakthroughs in what could be called a new age of amide activation.

Abstract
The catalytic asymmetric geminal bis-nucleophilic addition to nonreactive functional groups is a type of highly desirable yet challenging transformation in organic chemistry. Here, we report the first catalytic asymmetric reductive/deoxygenative alkynylation of secondary amides. The method is based on a multicatalysis strategy that merges iridium/copper relay catalysis with organocatalysis. A further combination with the palladium-catalyzed alkyne hydrogenation allows the one-pot enantioselective reductive alkylation of secondary amides. This versatile protocol allows the efficient synthesis of four types of α-branched chiral amines, which are prevalent structural motifs of active pharmaceutical ingredients. The protocol also features excellent enantioselectivity, chemoselectivity, and functional group tolerance to be compatible with more reactive functional groups such as ketone and aldehyde. The synthetic utility of the method was further demonstrated by the late-stage functionalization of two drug derivatives and the concise, first catalytic asymmetric approach to the κ-opioid antagonist aticaprant.

Abstract
The catalytic reductive condensation reactions of tertiary amides with active methylene compounds leading to multifunctionalized non-N-containing products is described. The reactions proceed through sequential iridium-catalyzed hydrosilylation of the amides followed by acid-mediated condensation with the active methylene compounds. This scalable method is broad in scope and shows remarkable chemoselectivity for the amide group in the presence of several sensitive or even more reactive functionalities such as ester, cyano, nitro, silyl dienol ether, and ketone.

Abstract
β-Amino acid derivatives are key structural elements in synthetic and biological chemistry. Despite being a hallmark method for their preparation, the direct Mannich reaction encounters significant challenges when carboxylic acid derivatives are employed. Indeed, not only is chemoselective enolate formation a pitfall (particularly with carboxamides), but most importantly the inability to reliably access α-tertiary amines through an enolate/ketimine coupling is an unsolved problem of this century-old reaction. Herein, we report a strategy enabling the first direct coupling of carboxamides with ketimines for the diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis of β-amino amides. This conceptually novel approach hinges on the innovative deployment of enantiopure sulfinimines in sulfonium rearrangements, and at once solves the problems of chemoselectivity, reactivity, and (relative and absolute) stereoselectivity of the Mannich process. In-depth computational studies explain the observed, unexpected (dia)stereoselectivity and showcase the key role of intramolecular interactions, including London dispersion, for the accurate description of the reaction mechanism.

Abstract
α-Arylated carboxylic acids, esters and amides are widespread motifs in bioactive molecules and important building blocks in chemical synthesis. Thus, straightforward and rapid access to such structures is highly desirable. Here we report an organophotocatalytic multicomponent synthesis of α-arylated carboxylic acids, esters and amides from exhaustive defluorination of α-trifluoromethyl alkenes in the presence of alkyltrifluoroborates, water and nitrogen/oxygen nucleophiles. This operationally simple strategy features a unified access to functionally diverse α-arylated carboxylic acids, esters, and primary, secondary, and tertiary amides through backbone assembly from simple starting materials enabled by consecutive C–F bond functionalization at room temperature. Preliminary mechanistic investigations reveal that the reaction operates through a radical-triggered three-step cascade process, which involves distinct mechanisms for each defluorinative functionalization of the C–F bond. Here we report an organophotocatalytic synthesis of α-arylated carboxylic acids, esters and amides from exhaustive defluorination of α-trifluoromethyl alkenes in the presence of alkyltrifluoroborates, water and nitrogen/oxygen nucleophiles.![]()

Abstract
In general, the α-functionalization of carboxylic acid derivatives requires either a transition metal catalyst or a stoichiometric activating agent/strong base/external additive. A transition metal free α-chalcogenation of aliphatic carboxylic acid equivalents is reported herein via ion pair formation using K3PO4 as a catalyst. Mild conditions, broad scope, scalability of the process, attaining bioactive glucokinase activators, and some synthetic intermediates establish merits of the strategy.

Abstract
Herein, a protocol that combines heterogeneous catalysis and solar photocatalysis for the regioselective α-substitution of asymmetric ketones with quinoxalinones has been reported. The result indicates that the reaction is more likely to occur on the α-carbon. This strategy provides a green and efficient way for the α-functionalization of ketones. A singlet oxygen involved mechanism is suggested for the transformation.

Abstract
A straightforward and divergent entry to α-fluorinated carbonyl and carboxyl derivatives is reported. Upon activation of amides with triflic anhydride and a 2-halo-pyridine and subsequent trapping of the resulting keteniminium ions with nucleophiles followed by a second electrophilic activation with NFSI and final hydrolysis, a range of amides can be transformed to α-fluorinated ketones, esters, and amides under mild conditions. Moreover, this reaction can be performed to yield enantioenriched products with a traceless chiral auxiliary.

Abstract
Umpolung approach through inversion of the polarity of conventional enolates, has opened up an unprecedented opportunity in the cross-coupling via alkylation. The enolonium equivalents can be accessed either by hypervalent iodine reagents, activation/oxidation of amides, or the oxidation of alkynes. Under umpolung conditions, highly basic conditions required for classical enolate chemistry can be avoided, and they can couple with unmodified nucleophiles such as heteroatom donors and electron-rich arenes.

Abstract
This study was aimed to synthesize novel 2-(2-bromophenyl)-N-phenethylacetamides and benzylisoquinoline (BIQ) derivatives to be evaluated as antidepressant-like agents in mice. The phenethylacetamides derivatives were synthesized by coupling aromatic amides to the backbone of 2-bromophenylacetyl chloride. The synthesis of BIQ was achieved by the reaction between synthesized phenethylacetamides and 2-chloropyridine. The structures of compounds were established mainly by 1D and 2D NMR spectra. Those compounds obtained with moderate to good yields were evaluated as antidepressant-like agents in the forced swim test and the open field paradigms in mice. The possible mechanism of those active derivatives was explored by antagonist experiments in combination with p-chloro-phenylalanine methyl ester, reserpine, sulpiride, and dopamine D1 antagonist SCH23390. Also, MAO A and B inhibition assays were performed. Docking studies between the human dopamine D3 receptor and the higher active compound were performed. The results showed that the (2-bromophenyl)-(3,4-dihydroisoquinoline-1-yl)methanone (4a) presented the most potent antidepressant-like effects without modifying the ambulatory activity of experimental mice. Antagonist experiments showed that 4a acted on the serotonergic and dopaminergic receptors. Docking studies indicated a strong affinity between the human dopamine D3 receptor and 4a. Our results showed that BIQ 4a has an antidepressant-like effect that is possibly mediated by an interaction with the presynaptic serotonin receptors and dopaminergic, D1, D2, and D3, receptors. This study highlights the pharmacological potential of halogenated BIQs in the treatment of some depressive disorders.

Abstract
We developed a new transition-metal-free intermolecular Claisen rearrangement process to introduce allyl and allenyl groups into the α position of tertiary amides. In this transformation, amides were activated by trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride to produce the keteniminium ion intermediates that exhibit strong electrophilic activity. This atom-economical process delivers α position-modified amides under mild conditions in moderate to good yields and showcases a broad substrate compatibility.

Abstract
A general and efficient synthesis of fully substituted 4-aminodixazoles was developed based on the strategies of amide activation and umpolung reaction. In this method, 1,4,2-dioxazol-5-ones were introduced as a rare type of umpolung reagent bearing a nucleophilic N-atom that could be used well together with the activating agent Tf2O. Because 1,4,2-dioxazol-5-ones played triple roles as an umpolung reagent, a substrate, and a weak base, the method proceeded smoothly under extremely convenient conditions.

Abstract
The direct α-sulfidation of tertiary amides using sulfoxide reagents under electrophilic amide activation conditions is described. Employing convenient and readily available reagents, selective functionalization takes place to generate isolable sulfonium ions en route to α-sulfide amides. Mechanistic studies identified activated sulfoxides as promoters of the desired transformation and enabled the extension of the methodology from benzylic to aliphatic amide substrates.

Abstract
![]()
Functionalization
at the α-position of carbonyl compounds
has classically relied on enolate chemistry. As a result, the generation
of a new C–X bond, where X is more electronegative than carbon
requires an oxidation event. Herein we show that, by rendering the
α-position of amides electrophilic through a mild and chemoselective
umpolung transformation, a broad range of widely available oxygen,
nitrogen, sulfur, and halogen nucleophiles can be used to generate
α-functionalized amides. More than 60 examples are presented
to establish the generality of this process, and calculations of the
mechanistic aspects underline a fragmentation pathway that accounts
for the broadness of this methodology.
