Remarkably efficient oxidative coupling of N,N-dialkylarylamines in water mediated by cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate

摘要

A highly effective,economical,and environmentally friendly method using of CAN as oxidant and water as solvent for oxidative coupling of N,N-dialkylarylamines was reported. N,N,N',N'-tetraalkylbenzidine derivatives have received growing interest in their tunable electric conductivity,which admits to diverse applications such as organic light-emitting diodes,organic field-effect transistors,organic solar cells,and organic photoconductors.
