Abstract

Herein we report an abnormal N-heterocyclic carbene catalyzed dehydration of primary amides in the presence of a silane. This process bypasses the energy demanding 1,2-siloxane elimination step usually required for metal/silane catalyzed reactions. A detailed mechanistic cycle of this process has been proposed based on experimental evidence along with computational study.
