RhCl3-catalysed amide bond formation under mild conditions

Abstract

The reaction of carboxylic acid esters with amines is accelerated in the presence of catalytic amounts of RhCl3.3H2O at a reasonably low temperature; optically active 2,5-dioxopiperazines can be synthesized in high yield from the corresponding amino-acid esters using this procedure.
