Pd-Catalyzed Aryl C-H Amination with Diaziridinone.

This work describes an efficient Pd-catalyzed ortho-C-H amination of N-(quinolin-8-yl)benzamides with di-t-butyldiaziridinone, providing a variety of anthranilic amides in good yields. The reaction likely involves the formation of a pallada(II)heterocycle via aryl C-H activation and subsequent amination with di-t-butyldiaziridinone.

Pd-Catalyzed Indole Synthesis via C-H Activation and Bisamination Sequence with Diaziridinone.

This work describes an efficient Pd-catalyzed indole synthesis. A wide variety of indoles can be obtained in good yields from readily available vinyl bromides. The reaction likely proceeds through a sequential aryl C-H activation and bisamination of a resulting pallada(II)cycle with diaziridinone.
