Abstract

When transition-metal-catalyzed transformations fail, the amination reaction of activated bromo- and chloropyridines can be achieved thermally. The auxiliary base 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine turned out to be the key for the conversion of highly sterically demanding and acid labile amines.

Key words

aminations - nucleophilic aromatic substitutions - steric hindrance - pyridines - tetramethylpiperidine
