Abstract Aminations of aryl bromides by morpholine have been investigated using palladium complexes as catalyst precursors modified by the cobalt-containing phosphane ligand [(μ- PPh 2 CH 2 PPh 2) Co 2 (CO) 4][μ, η-PhC≡ CP (tBu) 2](1). Reactions were carried out under various conditions with satisfactory results. The components of the optimised reaction conditions consist of 1.0 mmol of aryl bromide, 1.2 equiv. of morpholine, 1.4 equiv. of ...
