''Chan-Evans-Lam'' (CEL) reaction is the copper-mediated cross-coupling of N-nucleophiles with boronic acids
that was independently reported in 1998 by Chan, Evans, and Lam for the first time. This reaction is accomplished at room
temperature with a remarkably wide range of nucleophiles. In the recent decade, it has been particularly attractive as a
convenient method for constructing the various C–N bonds in organic synthesis. Therefore, a comprehensive survey through
all reported process was crucial. In this review, we summarized research progress about N-Arylation, based on the type of
N-nucleophile involved in this reaction and catalysts from 2012 onwards.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
