A Convenient Procedure for the N-Formylation of Amines Using Formic Acid Catalyzed by Oxalic acid

A mild and efficient method has been devised for the N-formylation of different amines using 85% formic acid in the presence of 20 mol% of Oxalic acid that provides corresponding formylated amines in excellent yields after short reaction time.
