Diarylamines in the benzo[b]thiophene series bearing electron donating or withdrawing groups, were prepared by Buchwald-Hartwig C-N coupling in moderate to high yields. The conditions used were Pd(OAc)(2) (3 mol%), BINAP as ligand (4 mol%) and Cs2Co3 as base (1.4 equiv.), in toluene at 100degreesC, being 6-bromo or amino benzo[b]thiophenes coupled, respectively, with substituted anilines or phenylbromides. The 6-aminobenzo[b]thiophene derivatives were also prepared by palladium catalyzed C-N coupling of the corresponding 6-bromo compounds with benzophenone imine, followed by acidic hydrolysis of the imino derivatives. When 4-nitrobromobenzene and 4-bromobenzonitrile were used as coupling components, triarylamines were also isolated in small amounts. The presence of a fluorine atom on the phenylbromide highly increases the diarylamine yields. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
