C?H amination and amidation by catalytic nitrene transfer are well-established and typically proceed via electrophilic attack of nitrenoid intermediates. In contrast, the insertion of (formal) terminal nitride ligands into C?H bonds is much less developed and catalytic nitrogen atom transfer remains unknown. We here report the synthesis of a formal terminal nitride complex of palladium. Photocrystallographic, magnetic, and computational characterization support the assignment as an authentic metallonitrene (Pd?N) with a diradical nitrogen ligand that is singly bonded to PdII. Despite the subvalent nitrene character, selective C?H insertion with aldehydes follows nucleophilic selectivity. Transamidation of the benzamide product is enabled by reaction with N3SiMe3. Based on these results, a photocatalytic protocol for aldehyde C?H trimethylsilylamidation was developed that exhibits inverted, nucleophilic selectivity as compared to typical nitrene transfer catalysis. This first example of catalytic C?H nitrogen atom transfer offers facile access to primary amides after deprotection.

Functionalized (hetero)aromatic compounds are indispensable chemicals widely used in basic and applied sciences. Among these, especially aromatic aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, nitriles, and amides represent valuable fine and bulk chemicals, which are used in chemical, pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material industries. For their synthesis, catalytic aerobic oxidation of alcohols constitutes a green, sustainable, and cost-effective process, which should ideally make use of active and selective 3D metals. Here, we report the preparation of graphitic layers encapsulated in Co-nanoparticles by pyrolysis of cobalt-piperazine-tartaric acid complex on carbon as a most general oxidation catalyst. This unique material allows for the synthesis of simple, functionalized, and structurally diverse (hetero)aromatic aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, nitriles, and amides from alcohols in excellent yields in the presence of air.

Mechanochemistry provides a rapid, efficient route to half-sandwich iridium and rhodium complexes from [MCp*(μ-Cl)Cl]2 (M = Ir, Rh) and 8-hydroxyquinoline-2-carbaldehyde without the need for Schlenk manipulation, inert gas protection, or dry solvents. Furthermore, post-synthetic modification of the half-sandwich metal complexes has been carried out via a mechanochemical Wittig reaction between half-sandwich metal complex and phosphorus ylide. All complexes were fully characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectra, infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. The half-sandwich rhodium complexes exhibited high catalytic activity towards the amide synthesis between aldehyde and hydroxylamine hydrochloride (NH2OH·HCl) with a broad functional group tolerance.
