C. Desmarets et al., Nickel-catalysed synthesis of 3-chloroanilines and chloro aminopyridines via cross-coupling reactions of aryl and heteroaryl dichlorides with amines, TETRAHEDR L, 42(2), 2001, pp. 247-250
Selective monoamination of aryl and heteroaryl dichlorides has been carried
out using a catalyst combination of Ni(0) associated to 2,2'-bipyridine. T
he synthesis of novel 3-chloroanilines and chloro aminopyridines in good to
excellent yields is allowed using an excess of amine, 10 or 20 mol% cataly
st and short reaction times. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights rese
