Primary amidations of carboxylic acids 1 or 3 with NH4Cl in the presence of ClCO2Et and Et3N were developed to afford the corresponding primary amides in 22% to quantitative yields. Additionally, we have applied the amidation to the preparation of various amides containing hydroxamic acids and achieved the synthesis of (1S,2R)-tranylcypromine as an antidepressant medicine via Lossen rearrangement.
