Why do some chemists prefer to perform N-formylation for the free amine before coupling reactions rather than reacting the free amine directly?

Recently, I've seen in a patent a simple N-alkylation reaction of 2-aminobenzothiazole with ethyl bromoacetate. The inventors have carried out N-formylation reaction first followed by coupling...

Yes, see attached recommendation for hand sanitizer from the World Health Organisation.

Luay A. Al-Helaly

There are two formulas that are used. Each formulation contains a certain type of alcohol and different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide, as follows:

The WHO recommend two alcohol-based sanitizer formulations to prevent the spread of pathogens in general.

Now, scientists in Germany and Switzerland have tested the sanitizers’ effectiveness against SARS-CoV-2.

The first sanitizer comprises:

ethanol — 80% by volume (vol/vol)
glycerine (also known as glycerol) — 1.45% vol/vol
hydrogen peroxide — 0.125% vol/vol

The second sanitizer comprises:

isopropanol (also known as 2-propanol or isopropyl alcohol) — 75% vol/vol
glycerine — 1.45% vol/vol
hydrogen peroxide — 0.125% vol/vol

The researchers exposed SARS-CoV-2 virus particles to each formulation for 30 seconds.
