The influence of the substrate structure and concentration on the yield of the Passerini reaction was studied. A new, solvent-free methodology for a convenient preparation of alpha-acyloxyamides 4 was established and compared to the classical methodology. A higher reaction yield was obtained in shorter time, especially in the case of aromatic aldehydes.
