Fe‐Catalyzed Amination of (Hetero)Arenes with a Redox‐Active Aminating Reagent under Mild Conditions

A novel and efficient Fe-catalyzed direct C-H amination (NH2 ) of arenes is reported using a new redox-active aminating reagent. The reaction is simple, and can be performed under air, mild, and redox-neutral conditions. This protocol has a broad substrate scope and could be used in the late-stage modification of bioactive compounds. Mechanistic studies demonstrate that a radical pathway could be involved in this...
