Abstract

N-aryl 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines were prepared rapidly in good yields by the microwave-assisted Pd-catalysed coupling of (hetero)aryl iodides or bromides with 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline. Reactions were typically complete within 5 min for aryl iodides and within 30 min for pyridyl bromides.
