Pd-Catalyzed Aryl C–H Amination with Diaziridinone

This work describes an efficient Pd-catalyzed ortho-C–H amination of N-(quinolin-8-yl)benzamides with di-t-butyldiaziridinone, providing a variety of anthranilic amides in good yields. The reaction likely involves the formation of a pallada(II)heterocycle via aryl C–H activation and subsequent amination with di-t-butyldiaziridinone.
