An efficient method for the conversion of aryl amines into arenes by a one-pot reductive deamination has been achieved. It was found the reductive deamination using t-BuONO in tetrahydrofuran could be accelerated by dimethyl sulfoxide and provided the deamination products with good yields under mild conditions. A plausible mechanism is discussed.
