A novel method for synthesizing 2-azaaryl tetrahydroquinolines is reported by the base-promoted tandem reaction of azaaryl methyl amines and styrene derivatives. Mechanistic probe experiments confirm the mechanism involving deprotonation of the benzylic C-H bond and addition to the styrene vinyl group via the SNAr mechanism. High yields of up to 95% were achieved in over 30 examples, demonstrating the potential applicability of this method.
