3. An alternative protocol for C-N bond formation is the amination of arylhalides catalyzed by Cu(I) salts developed by Buchwald. This highly efficient method tolerates a broad range of substrates, but reactions are performed at elevated temperatures, and in the presence of several equivalents of base. See: Kwong, F. Y.; Buchwald, S. L. Org. Lett. 2003, 5, 793-796 and references therein.
