• University, 1-1-3 Minatojima Chuo-ku, Kobe 655-8586, Japan 10.3762/bjoc.12.179 Abstract This study describes the synthesis of triazine-based dehydrocondensing reagents substituted by amido substituents and demonstrates their efficiency for dehydrocondensing reactions in MeOH and THF. N-Phenylbenzamido

• -substituted chlorotriazine is readily converted to a stable, non-hygroscopic triazinylammonium-based dehydrocondensing reagent that is superior to 4-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-4-methylmorpholinium chloride (DMT-MM) in terms of its reactivity in dehydrocondensing reactions. Keywords: amide-forming
