Abstract
AbstractAn efficient, green and first catalytic process has been developed for the direct synthesis of amides from readily available petroleum by‐products (methylarenes) and amines using an iron catalyst. In this new catalytic reaction, the methyl group of the methylarene is oxidized to the corresponding aldehyde through non‐directed CH oxidation followed by its oxidative amidation with N‐chloroamine, yielding the carboxylic amide. Oxidation with an iron catalyst, tert‐butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as sole oxidant, the synthesis of amides under mild reaction conditions and the utilization of methylarenes as starting material make this methodology novel and environmentally benign.magnified image
