Herein, we report an operationally simple, cheap, and catalyst-free method for the transamidation of a diverse range of unactivated amides furnishing the desired products in excellent yields. This protocol is environmentally friendly and operates under extremely mild conditions without using any promoter or additives. Significantly, this strategy has been implied in the chemoselective synthesis of a pharmaceutical molecule, paracetamol, on a gram-scale with excellent yield. We anticipate that this universally applicable strategy will be of great interest in drug discovery, biochemistry, and organic synthesis.

A catalyst-free, direct electrochemical synthesis of synthetically challenging medium-sized lactams through C-C bond cleavage has been developed. In contrast to previous typical amidyl radical cyclization, this electrosynthetic approach enabled step-economical ring expansion through a unique remote amidyl migration under mild, metal- and external-oxidant-free conditions in a simple undivided cell. The strategy features unparalleled broad substrate scope with all ring sizes of (hetero)aryl-fused 8-11-membered rings and hetero atom-tethered rings, high yields, and good functional group tolerance. Our experimental and computational findings provided strong support for a SET-based reaction manifold.
Synthesis of acetamides from aryl amines and acetonitrile by diazotization under metal-free conditions

An efficient and metal-free coupling reaction has been developed that affords acetamides from the corresponding aryl amines and acetonitrile. This method tolerates a wide range of functional groups and is selective toward aryl amines. Preliminary mechanistic studies were conducted.
