Cobalt-catalyzed chelation-assisted alkylation of arenes with primary and secondary alkyl halides

Cobalt–N-heterocyclic carbene catalytic systems have been developed for chelation-assisted ortho-alkylation of aromatic compounds with alkyl halides. Aryl imines can be selectively monoalkylated at room temperature by various primary or secondary alkyl chlorides or bromides. The catalytic system can...
