Abstract
We report a catalyst-free electrophilic amination, which enables the synthesis of aromatic and heterocyclic amines. By subjecting diarylzinc or diheteroarylzinc compounds to readily accessible O-2,6-dichlorobenzoyl hydroxylamines in the presence of MgCl2 in dioxane at a temperature of 60 °C (8-16 h). This new electrophilic amination allowed an expedited synthesis of two pharmaceutically significant compounds: vortioxetine is a key intermediate of delamanid. This approach offers opportunities for the streamlined synthesis of amine-based molecules in the pharmaceutical industry.
