Abstract

Abstract A new environmentally benign, convenient, and facile methodology for the N- formylation of amines is reported using ultrasound irradiation under solvent-and catalyst-free conditions at room temperature. Compared with conventional methods, the main advantages of the present procedure are milder, cleaner and greener conditions, shorter reaction time, higher purity and yields, simpler work-up, and lower generation of waste or ...
