Goldberg Reaction
An example of a Goldberg reaction is the synthesis of fenamic acid, an intermediate of acridone via the Goldberg reaction:
An Ullmann-type aromatic amination reaction between an aryl iodide and an aryl amine as coupling partners has been published. The catalyst used is formed from copper(I) iodide and phenanthroline. As this reaction proceeds well with an electron-rich aryl iodide it is a valuable alternative to the Buchwald-Hartwig amination reaction, which gives best yields with electron-poor aryl halides.
The scope is extended to amides for example in the synthesis of this Camps cyclization precursor :

“Diplomacy is to do and say
The nastiest things in the nicest way.”
—Isaac Goldberg (1887–1938)
“Children, randomly at first, hit upon something sooner or later that is their mother’s and/or father’s Achilles’ heel, a kind of behavior that especially upsets, offends, irritates or embarrasses them. One parent dislikes name-calling, another teasing...another bathroom jokes. For the parents, this behavior my have ties back to their childhood, many have been something not allowed, forbidden, and when it appears in the child, it causes high-voltage reaction in the parent.”
—Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
