“…Several coordinating ligands, such as N,N'-dimethylethylenediamine (DMEDA)and N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA), [33] pyridine N-oxide, [34] thiophene-2carboxylate (TC), [35] 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) [36] and 4-(Dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP), [37][38][39] have been found promoting various copper catalysed CÀ N bond forming [40][41][42] reactions. These ligands help in preventing copper aggregation, enhancing solubility, stimulate milder conditions and stabilise active catalyst species during the catalysis process.…”
