Simple alcohols promoted direct C–H arylation of unactivated arenes with aryl halides

Abstract

Simple and cheap alcohols can promote the direct arylation of unactivated arenes with aryl iodides and bromides in the presence of potassium tert-butoxide. This transition-metal-free aromatic C–H transformation offers a cheap and easy practical way to synthesize biaryls under mild conditions.
