C-Alkylation of N-alkylamides with styrenes is reported, proceeding in ambient air/moisture to give arylbutanamides and pharmaceutically-relevant scaffolds in excellent mass balance. Various amide and styrene derivatives were tolerated, rapidly affording molecular complexity in a single step; thus highlighting the future utility of this transformation in the synthetic chemistry toolbox. Reaction scalability (up to 65 g h−1 product) was demonstrated using a Microwave Flow reactor, as the first example of a C-alkylation reaction using styrenes in continuous flow.

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry (OBC) publishes original and high impact research and reviews in organic chemistry. We welcome research that shows new or significantly improved protocols or methodologies in total synthesis, synthetic methodology or physical and theoretical organic chemistry as well as research that shows a significant advance in the organic chemistry or molecular design aspects of chemical biology, catalysis, supramolecular and macromolecular chemistry, theoretical chemistry, mechanism-oriented physical organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry or natural products. Articles published in the journal should report new work which makes a highly-significant impact in the field. Routine and incremental work is generally not suitable for publication in the journal. More details about key areas of our scope are below. In all cases authors should include in their article clear rationale for why their research has been carried out.
