Amino group immobilized on polyvinyl alcohol catalyzed, rapid, chemoselective and practical N-formylation

of amines using formic acid under solvent-free conditions. The catalyst was found to be compatible with different functional groups...

of chemical libraries. Thus, there is a drastic need to develop an environmentally benign, clean, simple and practical method for the N-formylation of amines under mild conditions....

A rapid, green and simple method for the N-formylation of various aromatic amines with

formic acid using polyphosphoric acid supported on silica-coated NiFe2O4 magnetic
