Copper-catalyzed efficient direct amidation of 2-methylquinolines with amines

Abstract

A novel Cu-catalyzed direct amidation of 2-methylquinolines with amines is described. This method afforded an efficient approach for the synthesis of biologically important aromatic amides from readily available coupling partners using molecular oxygen as the oxidant.
