Zusammenfassung:
Herein, we present an undirected para-selective two-step C–H alkylation of complex arenes useful for late-stage functionalization. The combination of a site-selective C–H thianthrenation with palladium-catalyzed reductive electrophile cross-coupling grants access to a diverse range of synthetically useful alkylated arenes which cannot be accessed otherwise with comparable selectivity, diversity, and practicality. The robustness of this transformation is further demonstrated by thianthrenium-based reductive coupling of two complex fragments.
