Site-selective C–H benzylation of alkanes with N-triftosylhydrazones leading to alkyl aromatics

Alkanes are an abundant and valuable resource for transformation into value-added fine chemicals. However, selective functionalization of specific C(sp3)–H bonds in alkanes for alkyl-alkyl bond formation is a significant challenge because of their intrinsic inertness and the small differences in rea...
