Abstract
An efficient and catalyst-free process for the direct oxidative synthesis of formanilides from primary aromatic amines and aliphatic aldehydes has been developed under mild aerobic oxidation conditions. The isotope-labeling experiments indicated that the oxygen atom of the formanilide originated from dioxygen.

- 15 General Procedure To a mixture of p-methoxyaniline (1a, 0.5 mmol) and cyclohexanecarboxaldehyde (2e, 0.6 mmol), and MeCN (1.5 mL) in a 25mL round-bottomed flask at 60 °C under air, the reaction vessel was allowed to stir at 60 °C for 24 h. After reaction, the resulting mixture was isolated by column chromatography on silica gel with EtOAc–PE (1:2) to obtain product 3a as brown solid; yield 88%. 1H NMR (600 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 8.51 (d, 1 H, J = 11.3 Hz), 8.31 (s, 1 H), 8.17 (br s, 1 H), 7.49 (br s, 1 H), 7.45–6.85 (m, 8 H, ArH), 3.80 (s, 3 H), 3.78 (s, 3 H). 13C NMR (151 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 163.2, 159.1, 157.6, 156.7, 130.0, 129.6, 121.8, 121.6, 114.9, 114.2, 55.6, 55.5. ESI-HRMS: m/z [M + Na+] calcd for C8H9NNaO2: 174.0525; found: 174.0529.
