摘要

A highly efficient heterogeneous copper-catalysed cascade reaction of aryl iodides with acetamidine hydrochloride was achieved in DMF in the presence of 10 mol% of an MCM-41-immobilised L-proline-copper(I) complex (MCM-41-L-proline-CuI) with Cs2CO3 as base, yielding a variety of primary arylamines in good to excellent yields. The new heterogeneous copper complex can be easily prepared from commercially readily available and inexpensive reagents, recovered by a simple filtration of the reaction solution and used at least seven more times without any decrease in activity.
