In the presence of a supported gold–palladium alloy nanoparticle catalyst (Au–Pd/Al2O3), various kinds of N-substituted anilines can be synthesized from non-aromatic compounds. The observed catalysis is truly heterogeneous, and Au–Pd/Al2O3 can be reused without a significant loss of its catalytic performance.
