Dynamic covalent chemistryh as rapidlyb ecome an importanta pproacht oa ccess supramolecular structures. While the products generatedi nt hese reactions are heldt ogether by covalent bonds, the reversible nature of the transformations can limit the utility of many these systems in creating robust materials.W ed escribe herein am ethodt of orm stable andc ommonly employed amideb onds by exploiting the reversible coupling of imines and acyl chlorides.T he reactione mploys easilya ccessible reagents, is dynamic under ambientc onditions, without catalysts, and can be trapped with simple hydrolysis. Thiso ffers an approach to create broad families of amide products under thermodynamic control,i ncluding the selective formation of amide macrocycles or polymers.Supporting information and the ORCID identification number(s) for the author(s) of this article can be found under: https://doi.
