The effect of catalyst on the yield of amine in the amination of three classes of arylzinc reagents with acetone oxime O-tosylate was investigated. Since they allowed the preparation of arylamines in excellent yields in the presence of a minimum amount of copper (I) or copper (II) compounds, the catalytic systems using copper (I) or copper (II) combined with a P-, N- or S-donor ligand were revealed to be the best catalysts for the electrophilic amination of arylzinc reagents with acetone oxime O-tosylate in the presence of DMPU.
