Abstract
Di(tert-butyl)neopentylphosphine (DTBNpP) as ligand offer better activity for the Pd-catalyzed Hartwig-Buchwald amination of aryl bromides than tri(tert-butyl)phosphine (TTBP) under mild conditions. DTBNpP also provided effective catalysts for amination reactions of aryl chlorides at elevated temperatures.
