Two robust and efficient mechanochemical protocols for the synthesis of an array of N-arylamides have been developed. This was achieved by a C?N cross-coupling between O-pivaloyl hydroxamic acids and aryl iodides or aryl boronic acids, in the presence of a stoichiometric amount of a copper mediator. The effectiveness of this method is highlighted by the high-yielding (up to 94 %), scalable (up to 8 mmol), and rapid (20 minutes) synthesis of N-aryl amides (15 examples), using a variety of deactivated and sterically encumbered substrates, whilst employing mild conditions and in the absence of solvents. In addition, it was determined that whilst the O-pivaloyl hydroxamic acid precursors can be synthesised mechanochemically, iron contamination originating from the steel jars was found to occur which can hinder the efficacy of this process. Furthermore, 3D printing was used to produce custom milling jars that could successfully accommodate a scaled-up version of the two protocols.

A mild, efficient and regioselective method for para-amination of activated arenes has been developed through a combination of iron and copper catalysis. A diverse range of products were obtained from an operationally simple one-pot, two-step procedure involving bromination of the aryl substrate with the powerful Lewis acid iron(III) triflimide, followed by a copper(I)-catalysed N-arylation reaction. This two-step dehydrogenative process for the regioselective coupling of aromatic C?H bonds with non-activated amines was applicable to anisole-, phenol-, aniline- and acetanilide-type aryl compounds. Importantly, the arene substrates were used as the limiting reagent and required no protecting-group manipulations during the transformation.
