Organocatalytic deprotonative functionalization of C(sp2)–H and C(sp3)–H bonds using in situ generated onium amide bases†
Abstract
Onium amides, generated in situ from the combination of aminosilanes and onium fluorides (R4PF, R4NF), are employed for the first time as bases for catalytic deprotonative functionalization of C(sp2)–H and activated C(sp3)–H bonds under mild conditions.
