Abstract
In the presence of N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) as an additive, easily prepared and handled N-chloroamines react with aryl Grignard reagents to give a variety of arylamines in good to excellent yields. Functional groups such as ester and nitrile are compatible under the reaction conditions.
