Abstract
Nickel-catalyzed amidation of aryl alkynyl acids using tetraalkylthiuram disulfides as the amine source is described, affording a series of aryl alkynyl amides in good to excellent yields under mild conditions. This general methodology provides an alternative pathway for the synthesis of useful aryl alkynyl amides in an operationally simple manner, which shows its practical synthetic value in organic synthesis. The mechanism of this transformation was explored through control experiments and DFT calculations.
Introduction
Thiuram reagents constitute an important class of compounds that is known to have a wide range of biological activities.1 As low-toxic, easy-to-prepare, and even commercially available organosulfur compounds, thiurams have also been extensively used in organic thiolation reactions2 and thus exhibited its broad applications in modern organic synthesis. As a continuing research interest, our group also selected thiurams as interesting reagents for the development of new synthetic transformations.
Aryl alkynyl amide derivatives are attractive synthetic targets because of their significant biological activities.3 This skeleton and their analogues also act as valuable intermediates in organic synthesis.4 As a consequence, tremendous attention has been focused on the synthesis of aryl alkynyl amides, and a number of methods have been devised. Among the numerous approaches, the coupling reactions between a carbamoyl chloride and a terminal alkyne conducted by 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO)5 or Pd/Cu catalysts6 had been commonly used (Scheme 1a). Moreover, N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) or secondary amines were also proved to be common amidation reagents for their great efficiency on the synthesis of alkynyl amides by reacting with acids7 or aldehydes8 (Scheme 1b). Nevertheless, these documented methods respectively suffer from some drawbacks such as harsh reaction conditions and foul-smelling amines to inhibit the application of these procedures. Meanwhile, by using carbamoylsilane as a source of amine was feasible as well (Scheme 1c).9 Moreover, the synthesis of alkynyl amides through one-pot three-component reactions had also been developed (Scheme 1d). For instance, Bhanage’s group reported a route of highly effective Pd/C-catalyzed oxidative N-dealkylation/carbonylation of various aliphatic as well as cyclic tertiary amines with alkynes.10 Shortly afterward, Lee and co-workers subsequently developed a method for the synthesis of alkynyl amides via the carbonylation of alkynoic acids and C–N activation of tertiary amines.11 Very recently, efficient approaches under metal-free conditions also played a necessary role in the reaction of amidation.12 Despite these advances, to the best of our knowledge, using thiuram reagents as amine sources to synthesize aryl alkynyl amides has not been precedented so far. As a continuation of this research program,13 herein, we present a nickel-catalyzed amidation of aryl alkynyl acids with tetraalkylthiuram to synthesize aryl alkynyl amides (Scheme 1e).

Results and Discussion
At the outset of our investigation, phenylpropiolic acid (1a) and tetramethylthiuram disulfide (TMTD, 2a) were chosen as the model substrates to optimize the reaction conditions, and the results were summarized in Table 1. First, the effect of catalysts has been studied. We were delighted to find that the reactions occurred, which afforded the corresponding product 3a (N, N-dimethyl-3-phenylpropiolamide) in acceptable yields (26, 30, and 39%) using CuBr2 (1 equiv), CoBr2 (1 equiv), and NiBr2 (1 equiv) as the catalysts (entries 1–3, Table 1). No desired product was detected when the reaction was carried out in the absence of metal catalysts, which indicated that the metal catalysts were necessary indeed to improve the reaction efficiency (entry 4, Table 1). Consequently, some other nickel salts such as NiCl2, NiF2, and Ni(OAc)2 were further tested in the reaction, and NiCl2 was proven to be superior to other nickel salts that could provide product 3a in 80% yield (entry 5 vs entries 3, 6–7). An investigation of solvents showed that the solvent had an important influence on the reaction. The best yield (85%, entry 13) was given in the solvent of toluene. A substantially decreased reaction efficiency was observed when the reaction was conducted in 1,4-dioxane, THF (tetrahydrofuran), DCE (1,2-dichloorethaan), hexane, and CH3CN (36–69%, entries 8–12). Particularly, the polar solvents such as DMF (N, N-dimethylformamide) and DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) showed an even worse performance in this process (trace: 16%, entries 14–15). Next, we evaluated the effect of reaction temperature, and 100 °C was determined as the optimized reaction temperature after a series of screening experiments (90% vs 41–85%, entry 17 vs entries 13, 16, and 18). Lowering the catalyst loading to 20 mol %, the reaction provided a similar yield of product 3a (89% vs 90%, entry 19 vs entry 17). However, a continuous decrease of the catalyst loading caused an unsatisfactory result (76%, entry 20). Therefore, the catalyst loading of 20 mol % was chosen for further optimization. We also briefly screened the reaction time, and 12 h was found to be the best choice (89% vs 79–80%, entry 19 vs entries 21–22). Inert conditions proved to be not critical. When the reaction was run under nitrogen conditions, the product 3a was obtained in a similar yield (84%, entry 23). After surveying a variety of parameters, we found that the optimized reaction conditions were identified as follows: 20 mol % of NiCl2 as the catalyst in toluene at 100 °C under air atmosphere for 12 h (entry 19).

With the optimal conditions in hand, the cross-coupling reactions of phenylpropiolic acid analogues and tetramethylthiuram disulfide (TMTD, 2a) were first investigated, and the results were summarized in Table 2. Generally, the electron-donating groups (−Me, −OMe, −Et, −OEt, −i-Pr, and −t-Bu) and electron-withdrawing groups (−F, −Cl, −Br, −CF3, and −CHO) were all compatible with this reaction, which afforded the corresponding products in moderate to excellent yields (3a–3a′, 37–95%). Electron-withdrawing groups seemed to be slightly more beneficial to the reaction than electron-donating groups. For example, 3-(p-tolyl)propiolic acid 1b gave the corresponding product 3b in 76% yield, while the bromo, chloro, and fluoro counterparts resulted in 86–93% yields of products 3n–3p. Noteworthily, the bromo-substituted phenylpropiolic acid works well in this transformation, which makes this reaction particularly attractive for further transformation by transition-metal-catalyzed coupling reactions. The position of substituents may not significantly affect the yield of the reaction. ortho-, meta-, and para-Methyl- or methoxyl-substituted substrates worked well and gave the desired products in similar yields (3b vs 3h and 3j, 76% vs 83 and 87%). Interestingly, 3-(4-formylphenyl)propiolic acid 1y was also the suitable substrate to check the reactivity of TMTD, and the desired product 3y was formed in 37% yield. This protocol also exhibited good feasibility with 3-(thiophen-2-yl)propiolic acid 1z and 3-(thiophen-3-yl)propiolic acid 1a′, which provided the products 3z–3a′ in 37–64% yields. To our delight, benzoylformic acid could complete the reaction and afford the product 3b′ in 81% yield (Scheme 2).

We then investigated the substrate scope of tetraalkylthiuram disulfides. As shown in Table 3, N, N, N′, N′-tetraethylthiuram disulfide (TETD, 2b) was initially examined. To our delight, it underwent these transformations smoothly and gave the products 4a–4w in moderate yields (30–76%), respectively. In particular, this protocol was applicable indeed to 3-(thiophen-2-yl)propiolic acid and 3-(thiophen-3-yl)propiolic acid with 2b, even though sharply lower yields were observed in these reactions (4v–4w, 31–46%). N, N, N′, N′-tetrabutylthiuram disulfide (TBTD, 2c) also performed well to give the desired products 4x–4d′ with good yields (51–80%). These results greatly expanded the substrate scope of this reaction. It is worth noting that the longer chain-substituted tetraalkylthiuram disulfides sometimes performed better in these reactions (3z–3a′ vs 4c′–4d′), which indicated that the yields were occasionally modulated by the presence of different alkyl substituents on the tetraalkylthiuram disulfides. The reaction of phenylpropiolic acid with tetraisopropylthiuram disulfide has also been carried out in our lab, and probably because of the larger steric effect of isopropyl group, the tetraisopropylthiuram disulfide is proven to be invalid to this reaction.

Interestingly, tetramethylthiuram monosulfide (TMTM, 5) is an active substrate to this amidation, and the corresponding product 3a was obtained in 65% yield (Scheme 3a). Bis(pentamethylene)thiuram tetrasulfide (6) could also react with phenylpropiolic acid, which provided the product 7 in 78% yield (Scheme 3b).

To gain a deeply understanding of the reaction mechanism, DFT calculations were utilized. As shown in Scheme 4, TMTD (2a) prefers to dissociate into B, and the reaction Gibbs free energy is 7.30 kcal/mol. This reaction is supported by the investigation of Steudel’s group.14B will combine with NiCl2 spontaneously to form intermediate C, and the Gibbs free energy would decrease to 35.28 kcal/mol. Then, C will form intermediate D via a transition state TS1, and the reaction Gibbs free energy would increase to 43.08 kcal/mol. Subsequently, D will form E via a transition state TS2, and the reaction Gibbs free energy would decrease to 6.85 kcal/mol. E will release CS2 and Cl radical to form F, and the reaction Gibbs free energy would increase to 21.62 kcal/mol. The Ni atom of F will accept the lone pair electrons attached to the carbonyl group of 1a to form G, and the reaction Gibbs free energy would slightly increase to 7.99 kcal/mol. G will form H via a transition state TS3, and the reaction Gibbs free energy would increase to 29.28 kcal/mol. Finally, H will release NiCl2 and OH radical to form the product 3a, and the reaction Gibbs free energy would slightly increase 3.89 to kcal/mol. Notably, the OH radical will combine with B to form A, and the reaction Gibbs free energy would decrease to 42.45 kcal/mol.
Scheme 4. Computational Reaction Mechanism.
In order to further ascertain the mechanism, some control experiments were conducted, and the results were exhibited in Scheme 5. When 2 equiv of radical scavenger 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxyl (TEMPO), butylated hydroxyl toluene (BHT), or galvinoxyl free radical was added to the reaction of 1a and 2a under the standard conditions, a substantial decrease of the reaction efficiency was observed, illustrating that a radical process may exist in this reaction (Scheme 5a). Particularly, when quencher 1,1-diphenylethylene was added, the sulfur radical was captured to give 8, which also indicated that a radical mechanism might be involved in this reaction (Scheme 5b).
Scheme 5. Radical Quenching Experiment (a) and Radical Capture Experiment (b).

Based on the mechanistic experiments and reported literatures,2c,15 a plausible mechanism is outlined in Scheme 6. The reaction is presumed to involve a sulfur radical A, which is generated by the hemolysis of tetramethylthiuram disulfide under heat conditions, along with the release of by-product H. Sulfur radical A coordinates with NiCl2 to form the intermediate B, which undergoes two steps rearrangement affording the Ni–N species E, CS2, and chloride radical. The following coordination of intermediate E to substrate 1a affords the Ni intermediate F. Then, another rearrangement process occurs to give the intermediate G, Finally, the dissociation of intermediate G produces the product 3a, hydroxyl radical, and the regeneration of NiCl2.

Conclusions
In summary, we have developed a mild and efficient amidation reaction of aryl alkynyl acids with tetraalkylthiuram disulfides via C–N cross-coupling. These processes gave a series of aryl alkynyl amides in mild conditions. This methodology is versatile and works well with a variety of aryl alkynyl acids and provides a straightforward way for the synthesis of aryl alkynyl amides. Investigation of the synthetic application and biological activities of these products are currently underway in our laboratory.
