Abstract
Abstract An efficient, waste-free protocol has been developed for the synthesis of amides directly from nonactivated carboxylic acids and amines without any tedious purification. Fatty acids were also converted into corresponding amides by reaction with nonactivated amines. The synthesized amides were cyclized to tetrahydroisoquinolines in good yields. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
