The hydroacylationreaction of aldehydes with azodicarboxylates catalyzed by copper(II) acetate monohydrate has been reported. The reaction of various aldehydes gave the corresponding hydroacylation products in 60–98% yields under mild conditions. The method is simple, economical, and has practical advantages for the construction of the carbon–nitrogen bonds.

Zn(OAc)2·2H2O is found to be an effective catalyst for the hydroacylation reaction of azodicarboxylates with aldehydes. A wide range of aldehydes, including aliphatic, aromatic and heterocyclic compounds, was considered. Most of the hydroacylation reactions afforded the hydroacylation products in good to excellent yields. The overall system is simple, economical and has practical advantages for construction of carbon-nitrogen bonds.
