This invention relates to a method for producing amide compounds, which includes a step of stirring alkaline and N-hydroxy compounds in an organic solvent under the presence of a transition metal catalyst to form amide bonds, and a peptide production method using the same. The amide reaction according to the present invention is based on the reactivity derived from the coordination reaction between alkaline and transition metals, rather than relying on conventional polar reactions such as simple nucleophilic and electrophilic reactions, demonstrating excellent chemical selectivity. Furthermore, the peptide synthesis process does not require consuming protective group attachment and detachment reactions, and the reaction process is simple, making it very effective for synthesizing compounds in the polyamide series, while also maintaining 100% atom efficiency as the starting materials are not lost during the reaction.
