Microwave reactions of primary and secondary amines with
imidoylbenzotriazoles gave various polysubstituted amidines in good yields.
Convenient preparations of a variety of amides and imidoylbenzotriazoles
have also been developed using microwave irradiation under mild conditions
and short reaction times.
