Flexible palladium-catalysed amidation reactions for the synthesis of complex aryl amides

This Letter describes the synthesis of complex aryl amides using palladium-catalysed amidation reactions. Use of these conditions allowed for the coupling of a variety of aryl halides and triflates with a host of primary amides in high yields.
