An intramolecular oxidativeC(sp3)–H amination from unprotected anilines and C(sp3)–H bonds readily occurs under mild conditions using t-BuOK, molecular oxygen and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). Success of this process, which requires mildly acidic N–H bonds and an activated C(sp3)–H bond (BDE < 85 kcal/mol), stems from synergy between basic, radical, and oxidizing species working together to promote
