Assembly of Biaryl Amines via Mild Copper-Catalyzed Coupling of Anilines with (Hetero)aryl Chlorides/Bromides

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

CuI/6-hydroxy picolinohydrazide-catalyzed coupling of (hetero)aryl chlorides with anilines proceeded well at 100 °C to afford biaryl amines in a diverse manner, which represents the first example of Cu-catalyzed biaryl amines under milder conditions. The same catalytic system could make the coupling of (hetero)aryl bromides with anilines work at room temperature, giving the corresponding products with an excellent reaction scope.
