Abstract

A protocol is described for an efficient transamidation of amides with amines in the presence of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). The latter is used as a green, heterogeneous, and recyclable nanocatalyst, under solvent-free conditions. Following this protocol, a wide range of aromatic, aliphatic, and cyclic/acyclic primary or secondary amines are used in synthesis of a series of amides with good to excellent yields (65–96%). MSNs is characterized by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), small-angle powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis, and FT-IR spectroscopy. The metal/solvent-free condition, easy work up, high purity of the products, recyclability, and environmentally-friendly nature of the catalyst are the attractive features of this methodology.
