Article Synopsis
  • The nucleophilic acyl substitution of amides with organolithium reagents happens quickly (within 20 seconds) and efficiently in a green solvent, yielding ketones up to 93% without needing complex modifications.
  • DFT calculations and NMR studies back up the experimental findings, indicating a reliable and effective process.
  • This new method operates at room temperature and under air, suggesting a shift away from traditional inert atmosphere methodologies and making it easier to scale and recycle the reaction.
