Naphthenic acid amides, anilides, and morpholides were synthesized directly from free carboxylic acids and amines in the absence of solvent and catalyst under high-temperature heating in a closed-vessel system of microwave reactor. With this new and efficient method, different primary, secondary, and tertiary amide derivatives of naphthenic acids were obtained in good to excellent yields. Synthesized derivatives were assayed as plant rooting agents for their stimulative effects on the formation of adventitious roots in sunflower cuttings and susceptibility for growth stimulation of <em>Pseudomonas</em> sp. strains.<em></em></p>}, number={1}, journal={Macedonian Journal of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering}, author={Grbović, Ljubica and Vasiljević, Bojana Radovan and Pavlović, Ksenija and Hajnal-Jafari, Timea and Đurić, Simonida and Popsavin, Mirjana and Kevrešan, Slavko}, year={2018}, month={Jun.}, pages={13–20} }
