Abstract
Here, we report a practical C-H imidation of five-membered heterocycles under metal-free conditions. We also report the first dual C-H bond aminobromination of thiophenes, with benzotriazole, saccharin, 1,2,4-triazole, benzimidazole, pyrazole, 4-bromopyrazole, 5-methyltetrazole, and dibenzenesulfonimides as effective amine sources. Mechanistic studies support the radical pathway of the imidation and aminobromination reactions.
