Thiocarboxylates, prepared conveniently by cleavage of 9-fluorenylmethyl or trimethoxybenzyl thioesters, react at room temperature with isocyanates and isothiocyanates to give amide bonds in good to excellent yield. A carboxylate salt is also shown to react with an electron-deficient isocyanate to give the corresponding amide in excellent yield at room temperature.
