A cobalt-catalyzed site-selective functionalization of anilinederivatives with hexafluoroisopropanol, which enables the synthesis of a wide array of fluoroalkylated anilines, a class of highly valuable building blocks for further preparation of fluorinated functional products, is reported. The developed transformation proceeds with operational simplicity, use of earth-abundant metal catalyst, broad
efficient copper-catalyzed direct C(sp2)–H/C(sp3)–H couplingreaction of aza-aromatic rings with fluoroalcohols is developed. A variety of useful building blocks including hydroxyfluoroalkylated aniline, pyrrole, and indole derivatives bearing a quaternary carbon center could be constructed with high regioselectivity and good to excellent yields under very mild reaction conditions. The reaction is believed
A general and efficient method for the tertiary amide synthesis has been developed via copper-catalyzed aerobicoxidative amidation of tertiaryamines. Due to the use of O2 oxidant, various functional...
