Abstract

Stable and easily accessible triflylpyridinium reagents mediate an effective synthesis of a broad range of amides and esters at ambient temperature within 5 min. In addition, a flow process enables a scalable synthesis of peptides and esters. Moreover, excellent chirality retentions are presented during activation of carboxylic acid.
