Key words
O-arylation - O-arylhydroxyl-amines - benzofurans - palladium

Significance
The bulky ligands t-BuBrettPhos and t-BuXPhos were efficiently used in the palladium-catalyzed O-arylation of ethyl acetohydroximate. The resulting O-arylated products can be converted into the respective arylhydroxylamines or benzofurans.
Comment
The reaction is general, and thus a broad range of various aryl or heteroaryl halides (electron-rich and -poor) can be used. Furthermore, it offers a novel expedient access to substituted benzofurans.
