Nickel-catalyzed Chan–Lam coupling: an efficient route to N -arylated 2-aminobenzothiazoles under ambient conditions

-arylated 2-aminobenzothiazoles in the presence of a Ni/4,4'-dOMebpy catalytic system under open-air conditions. The method encompasses a wide range of applicable substrates, including aryl boronic acids and 2-aminobenzothiazoles, affording the corresponding C-N coupled products in moderate to good yields in short reaction times.
