Abstract

Unreactive CH to attractive CN: A palladium-catalyzed intramolecular direct amidation of unactivated C(sp3)H bonds combines CH activation and CN bond formation into one efficient process. Under the optimized conditions, an extraordinary tolerance of functional groups was observed, and numerous indoline derivatives were formed (see scheme).
