Abstract

We described the convenient and efficient catalytic acylation and oxidation of primary amines and alcohols compounds into amide/ester or aldehyde compounds using nanoporous polyaniline emeraldine salts catalysts. The reaction mechanism of acylation by polyaniline emeraldine salt catalyst is explained by acid catalyzed addition–elimination reaction, whereas oxidation process is proposed to occur through a radical pathway.
