The combination of zinc powder as reductant and sodium chlorate as oxidant was
used to provide an environmentally friendly, effective, and convenient method
for the synthesis of aromatic amides in good yields from nitroarenes and
aldehydes in a green solvent under atmospheric conditions. Reductants and
oxidants with opposing properties can be used together without any adverse
effects. In addition, a cooperation seems to improve the yield.
