The addition of functionalized arylmagnesium halides to nitroarenes in THF (-20 degrees C, 2 h) provides, after reductive workup (FeCl(2), NaBH(4)), various polyfunctional diarylamines in 63-86% yield. Heterocyclic arylated amines can be prepared by this one-pot procedure. A mechanistic rationale of this reaction is given.
