Abstract

Abstract Aryl azides react smoothly with aryl boronic acids in the presence of indium metal in methanol to furnish a variety of unsymmetrical diaryl amines in good yields. This is the first report on the synthesis of diaryl amines from the cross coupling of aryl azides with aryl boronic acids via N-arylation.
