Abstract:
Reactions of isocyanates/isothiocyanates with primary and secondary phosphines without solvent at room temperature afforded phosphinecarboxamide/phosphinecarbothioamide, respectively, in excellent yields. Furthermore, palladium complex Pd(COD)Cl2 was allowed to react with Ph2PC(O)NHPh (1a) to afford [Pd{Ph2PC(O)NHPh-κP}2Cl2] (3). On the other hand, the reaction of Pd(COD)Cl2 with 1 eq. of Ph2PC(S)NHPh (2a) afforded [PdCl2{Ph2PC(S)NHPh-κP,S}] (4). In the case of a 1:2 molar ratio, [PdCl{Ph2PC(S)NHPh-κP,S}{Ph2PC(S)NHPh-κP}]Cl (5) was formed. The newly obtained compounds were fully characterized using multielement NMR measurements and elemental analyses. In addition, the molecular structures of Ph2PC(O)NH(CH2)2Cl (1j), Ph2PC(S)NHPh(4-Cl) (2c), and 3-5 were determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Preparation of Amides
The DCC-promoted synthesis of amides begins with the protonation of DCC by carboxylic acid. The protonation makes it a better acceptor. Next, the addition of carboxylate to the protonated carbodiimide gives a reactive acylating agent.
Subsequently, the amine acts as a nucleophile that attacks the acylating agent to form a tetrahedral intermediate. In the...
