Catalytic one-pot synthesis of N-phenyl alkyl amides from alkene and aniline in the presence of cobalt on charcoal under carbon monoxideElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: characterization of new compounds. See http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/cc/b2/b201708c/

Abstract

N-Phenyl alkyl amides were synthesized by the cobalt on charcoal-catalyzed one-pot reaction of alkene and aniline under carbon monoxide; this is the first heterogeneous catalytic formation of N-phenyl alkyl amides.
