Abstract
Benzotriazole (BtH) is an efficient ligand for the Cu-catalyzed N-arylation of imidazoles with aryl and heteroaryl halides. A combination of CuI/BtH was found to be an efficient and inexpensive catalyst system to carry out the N-arylation of imidazoles affording the corresponding products in good to excellent yields.
