Room-Temperature Palladium-Catalyzed Amination of Aryl Bromides and Chlorides and Extended Scope of Aromatic C−N Bond Formation with a Commercial Ligand

Abstract

The reactions of aryl bromides with amines occurs at room temperature when using Pd(0) and P(t-Bu)₃ in a 1:1 ratio, and the reactions of aryl chlorides occur at room temperature or 70 °C. The arylation of indoles and the new arylation of carbamates also occur when using P(t-Bu)₃ as ligand.
