RESUMO
A general and efficient method for the synthesis of tertiary amides has been developed via the copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidative amidation of tertiary amines. Due to the use of the O2 oxidant, various functional groups were well tolerated under the present conditions. Extensive substrates studies demonstrated its potential as a practical approach for the synthesis of tertiary amides.
RESUMO
A mild and efficient protocol for the high para-selective arylation of monosubstituted arenes with tertiary benzamides has been developed via palladium-catalyzed oxidative coupling reactions. Due to the mild conditions and the easy availability of substrates and oxidant, this method could potentially provide a practical approach for the synthesis of para-substituted biaryl compounds.
