Abstract
New methodologies to unite amines and carboxylic acids that complement the popular amide coupling can significantly expand accessible chemical space if they yield products distinct from the classic R-NHC(O)-R' amide arrangement. Here we have developed an amine-acid esterification reaction based on pyridinium salt activation of amine C-N bonds to create products of type R-OC(O)-R' upon reaction with alkyl and aryl carboxylic acids. The protocol is robust and facile as demonstrated by automation on open-source robotics.
