What is it about?

A ligand-free, base-free copper catalyzed arylation of ammonia and primary amines as their corresponding acetate salts are established. The Carboxylate group is believed to be catalyzing the arylation of ammonia. This reaction is specific for primary amines.

Why is it important?

Reaction of haloarenes with ammonium acetate or acetates of primary amines, generated in situ, provides the corresponding aromatic amines.
