Practical synthesis of amides from alkynyl bromides, amines, and water

A general and efficient method for the synthesis of a wide range of amides is described here. The reactions were conducted under convenient conditions and provided secondary and tertiary amides in moderate to excellent yields. A variety of amines and substituted alkynyl bromides were used to investigate the scope of the reactions.
