Nitroarenes are important intermediates for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. This poster presents a Pd-catalyzed method for the direct arylation of nitroarenes using tosylates and mesylates. Nitropyrazoles, nitroimidazoles and nitrobenzene serve as C-H substrates in these transformations. Electron-rich and electron-deficient sulfonates participate in these arylations to afford the products in good yields.
