Abstract

The synthesis of amides is of widespread importance, and there has been considerable recent interest in the development of catalytic methods to access these molecules. In this Perspective, we provide an overview of the current state of the art in amide synthesis, and assess new catalytic amide formation methods in the context of efficiency and sustainability. The advantages and disadvantages of catalytic approaches are highlighted and areas for future research are identified.
