N-tert-Alkyl and aryl amides were obtained by a Ritter reaction of various nitriles with tertiary alcohols in the presence of a catalytic amount of bismuth triflate. ... During the course of our work on bismuth catalyzed benzylic oxidation reactions, 8 we examined the reaction of 4-methylanisole 1 ...
