Selective ring expansion and C−H functionalization of azulenes

Abstract We report a transition metal-catalyzed ring expansion of azulene that can be contrasted with C–H functionalization. This study represents the first example of the successful ring expansion of azulene using Cu(hfacac)2 (hfacac: hexafluoroacetylacetonate) with a diazo reagent. This result is...
