Abstract

An efficient metal-free C–N bond forming reaction through cleavage of aryl C–O bond and amide C–N bond has been developed. This process represents a practical method for the facile construction of anilines with a broad substrate scope and wide functional group tolerance in moderate to excellent yields.
