title: Copper-Catalyzed Ligand-Free Amidation of Benzylic Hydrocarbons and Inactive Aliphatic Alkanes.
abstract: An efficient copper-catalyzed amidation of benzylic hydrocarbons and inactive aliphatic alkanes with simple amides was developed. The protocol proceeded smoothly without any ligand, and a wide range of N-alkylated aromatic and aliphatic amides, sulfonamides, and imides were synthesized in good yields.
