Abstract
N-Formylation of primary and secondary amines has efficiently been carried out at room temperature in excellent yields by using catalytic amount of sodium formate in formic acid under solvent-free conditions. The process is remarkably simple and environmentally benign.
Graphical abstractA very simple, highly efficient and cost-effective method for N-formylation of primary and secondary amines in excellent yield using catalytic amount of sodium formate in formic acid under solvent-free conditions is reported.Download full-size image
