The first procedure to directly access amides from stable aldimine under potassium peroxymonosulfate (Oxone)/DMF system was reported. It involved a nucleophilic addition of imine with Oxone, a similar Baeyer‐Villiger rearrangement and a tautomerization process to afford amides in excellent yield. The present work opens up an efficient method to amides under mild conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
