K1 Química K1 C−H activation K1 unprotected anilines K1 palladium K1 Catalysis K1 metal−ligand cooperation K1 23 Química AB Metal-catalyzed C−H functionalizations on the aryl ring of anilines usually need cumbersome N-protection−deprotection strategies to ensure chemoselectivity. We describe here the Pd-catalyzed direct C−H arylation of unprotected anilines with no competition of the N-arylation product. The ligand [2,2′-bipyridin]-6(1H)-one drives the chemoselectivity by kinetic differentiation in the product-forming step, while playing a cooperating role in the C−H cleavage step. The latter is favored in an anionic intermediate where the NH moiety is deprotonated, driving the regioselectivity of the reaction toward ortho substitution.
