title: Scope of aminomethylations via Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of organotrifluoroborates.
abstract: We previously reported the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction of N,N-dialkylaminomethyltrifluoroborates with aryl bromides. Herein, we report a further investigation of the scope and limitations of this palladium-catalyzed aminomethylation reaction. Aryl chlorides, iodides, and triflates coupled in good to excellent yields to give N,N-dialkylbenzylic amines. The aminomethylation of alkenyl bromides was also examined.
