A novel, one-step N-dehydrogenation of amides to enamides is reported. This reaction employs the unlikely combination of LiHMDS and triflic anhydride, which serves as both the electrophilic activator and the oxidant, and is characterized by its simple setup and broad substrate scope. The synthetic utility of the formed enamides was readily demonstrated in a range of downstream transformations.

We describe a palladium-catalyzed nondirected late-stage deuteration of arenes. Key aspects include the use of D2O as a convenient and easily available deuterium source and the discovery of highly active N,N-bidentate ligands containing an N-acylsulfonamide group. The reported protocol enables high degrees of deuterium incorporation via a reversible C-H activation step and features extraordinary functional group tolerance, allowing for the deuteration of complex substrates. This is exemplified by the late-stage isotopic labeling of various pharmaceutically relevant motifs and related scaffolds. We expect that this method, among other applications, will prove useful as a tool in drug development processes and for mechanistic studies.
Dipole-Stabilized Carbanions: The α' Lithiation of Piperidides

The α' lithiations and subsequent electrophilic substitutions of two series of piperidides are reported.In the cases of 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzopiperidide (5) and 4-tert-butyl-2,4,6-triisopropylbenzopiperidide (6) lithiations and electrophilic substitutions give α'-substituted products, as shown in Table I, which cannot be cleaved. 2,2-Diethylbutanopiperidide (19), 4-phenyl-2,2-diethylbutanopiperidide (20), and N,N-diethyl-2,2-diethylbutanamide (18) undergo α' lithiation and electrophilic substitution as shown in Table II to give products that can be cleaved to the substituted amines.This sequence thus provides the (α-lithioalkyl)alkylamine synthetic equivalent from secondary amines.The addition of the α'-lithiated piperidides from 20 to aldehydes is shown to provide equatorial substitution with erythro and threo isomers of the amido alcohol 31 produced in a 1:1 ratio.Exclusive conversion to an equatorial threo amino ester 36t is observed on treatment with strong acid.All four possible equatorial-axial and erythro-threo isomers of the amino alcohol 34 can be obtained by appropriate manipulations.The formation of the equatorially substituted products from 6 and 20 and of syn products from N,N-diethyl-2,4,6-triisopropylbenzamide (4) is noted to be consistent with oxygen-lithium complexation and dipole stabilization as important factors in α' lithiation.
