Abstract

In this study, the coupling of 2-phenylpyridine derivatives and potassium cyanate through C–H bond functionalization in the presence of a copper salt is developed for the first time. By this protocol, various heteroarylated acetanilide derivatives are synthesized in good yields. 2-Phenylpyridines containing electron-donating and -withdrawing groups appear to be well-tolerated by this transformation.
