Abstract

Transition-metal-catalyzed C N bond formation is considered to be an important approach which has wide applications in the synthesis of many compounds such as drugs and natural products [1]. Among metals that are able to perform such transformations, copper stands out as a convenient alternative for palladium catalysts, because copper salts are often cheap and environmental friendly [2]. In the recent years, several reviews have been published showing some ...
