efficient, easy and sustainable amidation of a set of non-activated carboxylic acids with anilines, assisted by CAL-B, as biodegradable catalyst, is reported. The enzymatic amidation reactions are performed on set of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), phenoxypropionic acid and protected-prolines by direct condensation of one equivalent of carboxylic acids and two equivalents of anilines
