Functionalization of amide bond via the cleavage of a non-carbonyl, C-N σ bond remains under-investigated. In this work, a transition-metal-free single-electron transfer reaction has been developed for the C-N σ bond cleavage of N-acylazetidines using the electride derived from sodium dispersions and 15-crown-5. Of note, less strained cyclic amides and acyclic amides are stable under the reaction conditions, which features the excellent chemoselectivity of the reaction. This method is amenable to a range of unhindered and sterically encumbered azetidinyl amides.

A mild, efficient, and transition-metal-free catalytic strategy is developed to construct thioesters via selective N–C bond cleavage of Boc2-activated primary amides. This strategy is successfully carried out with stoichiometric Na2CO3 as the base and provides the corresponding products in moderate to excellent yields.

An approach to novel P-functional chloroformylphosphane complexes is described using the synthetic potential of lithium/halogeno phosphinidenoid tungsten(0) complexes. Similarly to transition-metal-free chloroformylphosphanes, the obtained complexes tend to eliminate CO via P–C bond cleavage to give the corresponding P-chlorophosphane complex derivatives. Nevertheless, this method allowed the isolation of the first complex derivatives, which will open new synthetic perspectives in organophosphorus chemistry.
