Direct C(sp2)–H alkylation of unactivated arenes enabled by photoinduced Pd catalysis
Direct catalytic C(sp2)–H alkylation of unactivated arenes with alkyl halides remains elusive despite the progress in C-H functionalization. Here, the authors report the catalytic C(sp2)–H alkylation of unactivated arenes with alkyl bromides via visible-light induced Pd catalysis.
