Redox-Neutral Cross-Coupling Amination with Weak <i>N-</i>Nucleophiles: Arylation of Anilines, Sulfonamides, Sulfoximines, Carbamates, and Imines via Nickelaelectrocatalysis
A nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling amination with weak nitrogen nucleophiles is described. Arylhalides as well as aryl tosylates can be efficiently coupled with a series of weak N-nucleophiles, including anilines, sulfonamides, sulfoximines, carbamates, and imines via concerted paired electrolysis. Notably, electron-deficient anilines and sulfonamides are also suitable substrates. Interestingly, when
