Abstract

Abstract A simple and general copper-catalyzed method has been developed for transformations of various functional groups ([BOND] I,[BOND] N 3,[BOND] SO 2 R,[BOND] OH,[BOND] NH 2, and [BOND] NO 2) on aromatic rings from arylboronic acids in water under air. The protocol uses cheap and readily available inorganic salts (KI, NaN 3, NaSO 2 R, NaOH, NaNO 2) and aqueous ammonia as the functional-group sources, simple Cu 2 O/ ...
