Abstract

We developed a simple, practical, and catalytic method for the N-formylation of a wide variety of amines in the presence of molecular iodine as a catalyst under solvent-free conditions. This reaction is applicable to the chemoselective N-formylation of amino groups and -amino acid esters without epimerization.
