Reaktionsschritte

A 15 mL resealable Schlenk tube was charged with CuI (9.6 mg, 0.0504 mmol, 5.0 mol %), N-ethyl-p-toluenesulfonamide (240 mg, 1.20 mmol), K2CO3 (280 mg, 2.03 mmol), evacuated and backfilled with argon. trans-N,N′-Dimethyl-1,2-cyclohexanediamine (16 μL, 0.102 mmol, 10 mol %), iodobenzene (112 μL, 1.00 mmol) and toluene (1 mL) were added under argon. The Schlenk tube was sealed with a Teflon valve and the reaction mixture was stirred at 110° C. for 23 h. The resulting pale brown suspension was allowed to reach room temperature and then filtered through a 0.5×1 cm pad of silica gel eluting with 10 mL of ethyl acetate. The filtrate was concentrated and the residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (2×15 cm, hexane-ethyl acetate 4:1, 15 mL fractions). Fractions 10–17 provided 244 mg (89% yield) of the desired product.
