报道了一种新型的铁催化的烯基芳烃的氢芳基化、甲基芳基化和双芳基化的反应.富电子的苯甲醚以及1,3,5-三甲氧基苯在温和条件下和烯基芳烃反应得到非对称的1,1-二芳基烷烃.其中,在氢芳基化反应中,苯甲酰基过氧化物被用作氧化剂;在甲基芳基化和双芳基化反应中,叔丁基过氧酯是氧化剂.
A novel iron catalyzed hydroarylation, methylarylation, and diarylation of styrenes to form unsymmetrical l,l-diarylalkanes with electron rich anisole and 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene under mild conditions have been developed. Benzoyl peroxide is used as an oxidant for hydroarylation, whereas in the case of methylarylation and diarylation the oxidant tert-butyl peracetate is used.
