Abstract

A facile and efficient protocol for the synthesis of amides has been developed in the absence of transition metals. The reaction was performed with a catalytic amount of n-Bu4NI and aqueous TBHP as an oxidant. Various alcohols with N, N-disubstituted formamides were examined to furnish the desired products in good yields.
