A green and efficient method for the synthesis of amides has been developed through oxidative amidation between methylarenes with amines in a two-step continuous flow system. This method integrates methylarene oxidation and amide formation into a single operation which is usually accomplished separately. Oxidation with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as “green” oxidant, the synthesis of amides under mild reaction conditions in continuous flow system and the utilization of methylarenes as starting material make this methodology novel and environment friendly. The practical value of this method is highlighted through the synthesis of high-profile pharmaceutical agents, acetylprocainamide.

A mild and efficient method is demonstrated for the transamidation of secondary amides with various amines including primary, secondary, cyclic and acyclic amines in the presence of tert-butyl nitrite. The reaction proceeds through the N-nitrosamide intermediate and provides the transamidation products in good to excellent yields at room temperature. Moreover, the developed methodology does not require any catalyst or additives.

A simple and efficient Mn-catalyzed acylation of amines is achieved using both acyl and alkoxy functions of unactivated esters with the liberation of molecular hydrogen as a sole byproduct. The present protocol provides an atom-economical and sustainable route for the synthesis of amides from esters by employing an earth-abundant manganese salt and inexpensive phosphine-free tridentate ligand.
