Abstract

Thienylzinc halides and related compounds prepared by deprotonation followed by transmetalation were used in copper-catalyzed amination using N-benzoyloxy secondary amines. By extending the reaction to 1,5-naphthyridine, it was showed that the competitive dimer formation observed in the case of thiophenes was linked with the low stability of some thienylamines rather than homocoupling. Interestingly, thienylzinc halides and related compounds prepared by transmetalation of thienylmagnesium halides, either prepared from their bromo-precursors or generated by deprotometalation, were satisfactorily employed in cobalt-catalyzed aminations. Finally, aminothiophenes were involved in copper-catalyzed mono- and di-N-arylations, affording differently substituted di- and triphenylamines.
