Abstract

A palladium-catalysed aminocarbonylation of (hetero)aryl iodides has, for the first time, been accomplished in deep eutectic solvents as environmentally benign and recyclable media, under mild conditions. The reactions proceeded with a good substrate scope, and a variety of amides have been synthesized in yields up to 98%.
