Comparative catalytic C–H vs. C–Si activation of arenes with Pd complexes directed by urea or amide groups
Waqar Rauf, Amber L. Thompson and John M. Brown
Analysis of regiocontrol in Pd-catalysed C–H activation leads to observations of aryltrimethylsilyl activation and to superior results with urea-based substrates.
