Synthesis of N-arylhydroxylamines by Pd-catalyzed coupling

Abstract

Pd-catalyzed coupling of aryl halides with TeocNHOTBS, followed by treatment of the products with TBAF, provides effective access to a wide range of N-arylhydroxylamines by a route that produces stable doubly-protected intermediates and allows the protective groups to be removed under mild conditions that do not cause extensive degradation of the final product.
