Reaction conditions: ArCl (1 equiv), amide (2.5 equiv), [(allyl)PdCl]2 (1 mol%), JackiePhos (5 mol%), base (2.0 equiv), 3 Å mol sieves (200 mg/mmol), solvent (0.25 M), 110 °C, 18 h.
Yields reported are an average of at least two runs determined to be >95% pure by elemental analysis or 1H NMR.
K3PO4 was used instead of Cs2CO3.
