RESUMEN
A new approach for the preparation of amides was developed using C-C bond cleavage that initiates C- to N-acyl transfer, employing activated ketones as acylation reagents and amine nucleophiles. The reaction was operational under the coupling reagent system that is commonly utilized for peptide bond formations. The method enables practical preparation of amides using linear and cyclic ketone substrates under mild conditions.
RESUMEN
An SN1-type fluorination method for monofluoroethers is developed. The key to this reaction is fluorinative C-C bond cleavage that is driven by oxygen-assisted Beckmann fragmentation. To enable this transformation, cyclic α-aryloxyoximes derived from 3-coumaranone and 1-indanones were investigated as substrates, using N,N-diethylaminosulfur trifluoride (DAST) as a dual-role reagent of an oxime activator and fluoride donor. This method features the synthesis of an underdeveloped chemical motif with simple and mild operating conditions.
