ABSTRACT
A single set of reaction conditions for the palladium-catalyzed amination of a wide variety of (hetero)aryl halides using primary alkyl amines has been developed. By combining the exceptionally high reactivity of the Pd-PEPPSI-IPent(Cl) catalyst (PEPPSI=pyridine enhanced precatalyst preparation, stabilization, and initiation) with the soluble and nonaggressive sodium salt of BHT (BHT=2,6-di-tert-butyl-hydroxytoluene), both six- and five-membered (hetero)aryl halides undergo efficient and selective amination.
