Abstract
A mild and general method for lactone aminolysis is reported. Sodium 2-ethylhexanoate (NaEH) is found to serve both as a base and a catalyst in aminolysis of a variety of lactones by benzylamine hydrochloride. The nearly neutral pH conditions make this method applicable to many acid/base sensitive substrates.
