摘要
Herein,we report rhodium catalyzed N-arylation via addition of arylboronic acids to electron-deficientα-iminoesters which can be prepared in high efficiency by using easily accessible B-carbonyl esters.The reaction is highly regiospecific to achieve the N-aryl addition efficiently with up to 99%yield under mild conditions.The corresponding product can be further efficiently converted into indoles andaseries of other important building blocks.
