Copper-Catalyzed N-Arylation of Amides Using (S)-N-Methylpyrrolidine-2-carboxylate as the Ligand
(S)-N-methylpyrrolidine-2-carboxylate, a derivative of natural L-proline, was found to be an efficient ligand for the copper-catalyzed Goldberg-type N-arylation of amides with aryl halides under mild conditions. A variety of N-arylamides were synthesized in good to high yields.
