Indirect command

When we put an IMPERATIVE sentence into INDIRECT SPEECH, we usually use verbs like advise, ask, order, tell, followed by a TO-INFINITIVE CLAUSE.

Direct	Indirect
Give me the money.	He told me to give him the money. He ordered me to give him the money.
Come in, please.	The boss asked me to come in.

For a Negative Imperative, we put NOT before to:
DON'T + Verb ... → ... NOT TO + Verb

Direct	Indirect
Don't sit there!	I told you not to sit there!
Don't worry.	I advised him not to worry.

We also use the INFINITIVE for INDIRECT SPEECH with REQUESTS, INVITATIONS, etc. [See FUNCTIONS.]
