Catalysis of the ligation of an acid to an amino acid via a carbon-nitrogen bond with concomitant breakage of a diphosphate linkage, usually in a nucleoside triphosphate. Catalysis of the reaction: D-carnitine + CoA + ATP = AMP + diphosphate + D-carnitinyl-CoA. Catalysis of the reaction: substrate + ATP + CoASH = AMP + diphosphate + substrate-CoA. Catalysis of the ligation of two substances via a carbon-nitrogen bond with concomitant breakage of a diphosphate linkage, usually in a nucleoside triphosphate. Catalysis of the ligation of two substances via a carbon-sulfur bond with concomitant breakage of a diphosphate linkage, usually in a nucleoside triphosphate.
