Abstract

Copper-catalyzed electrophilic amination of a triarylboroxin using an N-methoxyamine to give quick access to a variety of anilines was reported. The reaction was especially useful for syntheses of functionalized anilines when combined with our previously reported nucleophilic addition to N-methoxyamides.
