Rechargeable solid-state sodium-ion batteries (SSSBs) hold great promise for safer and more energy-dense energy storage. However, the poor electrochemical stability between current sulfide-based solid electrolytes and high-voltage oxide cathodes has limited their long-term cycling performance and practicality. Here, we report

Two protocols for the transamidation of primary amides with primary and secondary amines, forming secondary and tertiary amides, respectively, are described. Both processes employ N,N-dialkylformamide dimethyl acetals for primary amide activation, producing N'-acyl-N,N-dialkylformamidines as intermediates, as widely documented in the
