Cu(Ⅱ)-promoted C-H nitration of arenes has been disclosed with the aid of N, O-bidentate directing group. The protocol was operationally simple by using NaNO₂as the nitration source. Various amide substrates were tolerated in the reaction system, which establishes opportunities for developing simple and facile methods, and enriches the strategies to access aromatic nitro derivatives.
- C-H activation,
- bidentate direction,
- Cu-catalyzed,
- nitration
