One-Pot Aminomethylation of Heteroarenes by Rongalite as In Situ C1 Source

Rongalite-mediated one-pot aminomethylation of heteroarenes using secondary amines/anilines has been developed. This transition-metal-free and mild reaction offers an efficient way to synthesize aminomethylated heteroaromatic compounds with high yields and broad functional group tolerance. Here, Rongalite plays a key role in generating the C1 unit source
