Electrocatalyzed direct arene alkenylations without directing groups for selective late-stage drug diversification

Abstract Electrooxidation has emerged as an increasingly viable platform in molecular syntheses that can avoid stoichiometric chemical redox agents. Despite major progress in electrochemical C−H activations, these arene functionalizations generally require directing groups to enable the C−H activati...
