Abstract

A new process involving copper-catalyzed oxidative amination reaction of various arylboronic acids with aminals under mild conditions has been developed. The key copper- amide species involved in the C–N bond-forming process was generated via C–N bond cleavage of aminal under base-free conditions. Moderate yields of desired amination products can be obtained under mild conditions when air was served as oxidant and ...
