Pd-catalyzed C-H activation/C-N bond formation: A new route to 1-aryl-1H-benzotriazoles

Abstract

A method for the C-H activation of aryl triazene compounds followed by intramolecular amination is described. It involves the use of a catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)2 that efficiently effects the cyclization to provide 1-aryl-1H-benzotriazoles at moderate temperature. © 2011 American Chemical Society.
