Abstract

An efficient palladium-catalyzed alkylarylation of acrylamides with unactivated alkyl halides has been developed. This method is highlighted by its broad substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance. In addition to alkyl halides, fluoroalkyl halides and benzyl bromides also participated well in this transformation. A detailed mechanistic investigation suggests that a radical pathway is probably involved in the cyclization process.
