Abstract

A robust catalyst derived from NiCl2·(DME) and acenaphthoimidazolium chloride exhibited high activity towards the challenging amination of bulky and heterocyclic aryl tosylates with secondary amines under mild reaction conditions at 2 mol% catalyst loading within 3 hours. Further, a wide range of primary amines were also successfully mono-aminated by our newly developed protocol.
