Arylation of benzyl amines with aromatic nitriles

Abstract

In the past years, the activations of aromatic nitriles for radical arylations under photoirradiation have been developed. We here report the first example of radical arylations using aromatic nitriles without the assistance of photoirradiation. Importantly, with this method, the direct arylation of C(sp3)–H in benzyl amines provided a practical method for the synthesis of diarylmethylamines without the use of precious transition metal catalysts.
