Abstract
Abstract A 3,6-di(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (pytz) catalysed efficient, mild and metal-free method has been developed for direct amide bond synthesis from simple thioacids and amines as starting materials. This methodology is useful for aromatic, aliphatic, and heteroaromatic thioacids as well as primary, secondary, heterocyclic, and even functionalized amines. A wide substrates scope, operationally mild conditions, and acylation of amines without affecting other functional groups such as alcohols, esters, carbodithioates, among others make this strategy very attractive and practical.
