The amides were obtained by single crystallization in moderate to excellent yields with high purity.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessOne-potAminesConversionEstersAmidationAnilidesSurfactantsAcylationReagentDirect amidationAminesCarboxylic acidsCatalysisMagnesiumScience & technologyPhysical sciencesChemistry, multidisciplinaryChemistryMetallic magnesium: An efficient catalyst toward N-aryl and N-alkyl substituted amides directly from aliphatic carboxylic acidsArticle000354242200012947951146610.1007/s00706-014-1387-21434-4475
