The transformation has been accomplished by employing NH2OH?HCl as a reagent and amines as substrates. The developed method is achieved in the absence of metals and hazardous reagents. A series of amines were explored to obtain the N-formylation and N-acylation reactions with excellent yields (81-96%) of products. The DFT analysis was also performed, which provides a clear understanding of the described N-formylation process. The postulated mechanism is well supported by the control experiments. � 2023 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.en-USamidesC-N bond formationDFT analysisNH₂OH?HCl reagentTransamidationArticlehttps://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10406638.2023.2257841
