Abstract
A ball-milling enabled chemoselective activation of amides via N-tert-butoxycarbonylation catalyzed by 4-dimethylaminopyridine is described under solvent-free conditions. High chemoselectivity with respect to NH acidity of amides has been observed. A one-pot two-step procedure for selective esterification of amides has been demonstrated in model reaction of benzamides with p-cresol and benzyl alcohol.
