Highly efficient chemoselective N-acylation with water microreaction system in the absence of catalyst.
A high-speed, highly efficient chemoselective N-acylation by anhydride was achieved in the absence of catalyst for exothermic (DeltaH>0) and endothermic (DeltaH<0) acylation of various amines and anilines with the microreaction system of ambient water (micro-onH2O) and subcritical water (micro-subH2O), where the desired N-acylated products are chemoselectively obtained with high yield(s) and excellent selectivity (>95%).
