Palladium(0)-Catalyzed Arylation of Olefins by Arylamines and an Alkyl Nitrite

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jo00337a012

Various olefins were arylated by the combination of arylamines and tert-butyl nitrite under palladium catalysis in the presence of acid such as monochloroacetic or acetic.The reaction proceeded in good yields without serious effects from substituents on either the olefinic substrates or the arylamines, including 3-aminopyridine.
