Js. Yadav et al., InCl3-SiO2 catalyzed electrophilic amination of arenes: A facile and rapidsynthesis of aryl hydrazides, SYNLETT, (11), 2001, pp. 1781-1783
Electron-rich arenes undergo electrophilic amination with diethyl azodicarb
oxylate on the surface of silica gel impregnated with indium trichloride in
solvent-free conditions to afford parasubstituted aryl hydrazides. Improve
d yields and enhanced rates are obtained by employing microwave irradiation
.
