Primary amidations of carboxylic acids 1 or 3 with NH4Cl in the presence of ClCO2Et and Et3N were developed to afford the corresponding primary amides in 22% to quantitative yields. Additionally, we have applied the amidation to the preparation of various amides containing hydroxamic acids and achieved the synthesis of (1S,2R)-tranylcypromine as an antidepressant medicine via Lossen rearrangement.
Enzymatic C-terminal amidation of amino acids and peptides

Herein, we describe two versatile and high yielding enzymatic approaches for the conversion of semi-protected amino acid and peptidyl C-terminal α-carboxylic acids into their corresponding amides. In the first approach, the lipase Candida antarctica lipase-B (Cal-B), and in the second approach, the protease Subtilisin A, are used, respectively. We found that by using the ammonium salt of the α-carboxylic acid instead of separate ammonia sources, the enzymatic amidation reactions proceeded much faster without side reactions and gave near to quantitative yields of products.
'BOP' as a reagent for mild and efficient preparation of esters
Kim,Patel
, p. 5603 - 5606 (2007/10/02)
A simple procedure for preparation of esters under mild conditions employing the BOP reagent is reported. Acid and base labile protecting groups commonly used with amino acids e.g. t-butyl, Fmoc etc., are well tolerated under these conditions. The mechani
