Reaction Steps

10.4 g of pivalic acid and 17.2 g of 2-butyloctylamine were mixed together in the tube of a microwave machine (Maxidigest™ MX 350 from the company Prolabo; frequency 2450±50 MHz, modulable power 300 W). After irradiation for about 1 hour at 160° C.±10° C., the reaction mixture was dissolved in heptane and then purified on silica. 19 g of the desired amide were obtained.
