More About This Title Copper-Catalyzed Amination of Aryl and Alkenyl Electrophiles
English
The metal-catalyzed amination of aryl and alkenyl electrophiles has developed into a widely used methodology for the synthesis of natural products, active pharmaceutical ingredients, agricultural chemicals, and materials for molecular electronics. Copper catalysts promote the coupling of a wide range of nitrogen nucleophiles, including amines, amides, and heteroaromatic nitrogen compounds with aryl and alkenyl halides. The reactivity profile of copper catalysts is complementary to that of palladium catalysts in many cases. Copper catalysts are highly effective with less nucleophilic nitrogen nucleophiles, such as amides and azoles, whereas palladium catalysts are more effective with more nucleophilic amine nucleophiles. Copper is an attractive alternative to palladium due to its significantly lower cost. In addition, high activity palladium catalysts require expensive and often air-sensitive ligands, whereas the modern copper systems use relatively stable and inexpensive diamine or amino acid ligands. Copper-catalyzed CN coupling reactions are tolerant of a wide range of functional groups and have been applied to the synthesis of a variety of complex natural products. Significant work has also been done to understand the mechanism of these reactions. Current mechanistic understanding of these methodologies is covered in this monograph.
The contents of the book are taken from the comprehensive review of the topic in the Organic Reactions series. Optimal experimental conditions for the amination of aryl and alkenyl halides with all classes of nitrogen nucleophiles are presented. Specific experimental procedures from the literature are provided for the major classes of copper-catalyzed CN coupling reactions. A tabular survey of all examples of Cu-catalyzed arylation and alkenylation of nitrogen nucleophiles is presented in 35 tables organized by nitrogen nucleophile and electrophilic coupling partner.
The literature is covered through December 2015 and provides 300 recent citations to supplement the 680 citations of the original hardbound chapter. These latest literature references have been collected in separate sections according to the sequence of the tables in the tabular survey section. In each of the sections, the individual citations have been arranged in alphabetic order of the author names.
Copper-Catalyzed Amination of Aryl and Alkenyl Electrophiles is intended to provide organic chemists with an accessible, but detailed, introduction to this important class of transformations.

KEVIN H. SHAUGHNESSY received his PhD from Stanford University in 1998 is now Professor and Chairof Chemistry at The University of Alabama. His research interests are focused on developing new ligands formetal-catalyzed bond-forming reactions and understanding how ligand structure impacts the mechanism ofthese processes.
ENGELBERT CIGANEK received his PhD from MIT in 1959 under the direction of Arthur C. Cope and began his professional career at DuPont Central Research in 1961. In 1981 he transferred to the Medical Products Department and then to the DuPont-Merck Pharmaceutical Company in 1991, retiring in 1994. He has been involved with the Organic Reactions series in many capacities including 17 years on the Board of Editors and since 2000 as the Editorial Advisor. He singlehandedly authored three chapters, coauthored four others and translated two from original German drafts.
REBECCA B. DeVASHER received her PhD from the University of Alabama in 2004. She is now an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. Her research interests include developing environmentally-friendly reaction conditions for palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions as well as designing sustainable methods for the production of biofuels.
