A bio-catalyzed N-formylation reaction of different amines has been developed using ethyl formate as a formylating agent. This protocol provides a facile and convenient strategy featuring mild reaction conditions, high efficacy, a broad substrate scope and recyclability of lipase. This method also works on a large scale in high yield.
