title: New reactivity of oxaziridine: Pd(II)-catalyzed aromatic C-H ethoxycarbonylation via C-C bond cleavage.
abstract: A novel Pd(II)-catalyzed aromatic C-H ethoxycarbonylation with oxaziridine involving C-C bond cleavage is described. Various aromatic 2-phenylpyridines and related compounds as well as aryl ureas can be effectively ethoxycarbonylated. A catalytic cycle involving Pd(II) and Pd(IV) is proposed.
