Résumé : Anilines selectively arylated at their ortho-, meta- or para- positions are useful building blocks in synthesis and have found applications in many areas. The most straightforward method for their synthesis relies on the direct arylation of a C(sp2)-H bond of anilines, an attractive strategy avoiding the prefunctionalization of the starting anilines provided that such arylations proceed with high levels of regioselectivity. Such reactions are presented and discussed, in a comprehensive manner, in this review article, with an emphasis on the regioselectivity of the processes and factors governing both the reactivity and selectivity.
