Abstract

Described herein is the direct amidation of a range of carboxylic acids, in moderate to excellent yields, using potassium hexafluorotitanate (K2TiF6) as a catalytic activator. The ready commercial availability, low cost, and ease of handling of the catalyst, as well as the simple, chromatography-free work-up of the reaction renders the process very appealing.
