Abstract
The use of diaryliodonium salts enables mild and metal-free conditions for arylation of wide scope of secondary acyclic amides. The method allows the synthesis of tertiary amides with highly congested aryl moieties, and avoids the regioselectivity problems observed in reactions with (diacetoxyiodo)benzene.
