Significance

Wang and co-workers describe a direct amination of (hetero)arenes by C–H zincation followed by copper-catalyzed electrophilic amination using O-acyl hydroxylamines. A broad substrate scope, good functional-group tolerance, and mild reaction conditions were demonstrated.


#

Comment

The C–H zincation was achieved applying either Zn(tmp)2 or tmpZnCl·LiCl (tmp = 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidyl) at room temperature. The obtained products were isolated in good to excellent yields.
