Arylation of adamantanamines: VIII. Optimization of the catalytic system for copper-catalyzed arylation of adamantane-containing amines

Resumo

Arylation of adamantane-containing amines with iodobenzene in the presence of copper(I) and copper(II) compounds and various N,N-, N,O- and O,O-bidentate ligands was studied. The best results were obtained using the catalytic system CuI–rac-BINOL [1,1′-bi(naphthalen-2-ol)] (10/20 mol %). Reactions with iodobenzene derivatives containing electron-donor and electron-withdrawing substituents in the para position to the iodine atom were carried out under the optimal conditions.
