Abstract

Direct arylation of unreactive C–H bonds has received considerable attention in the field of cross-coupling reactions in recent years.(1) Transition metal complexes, especially Pd, Rh, and Ru complexes, played a key role in most of these reactions. Recently, some cheap and environmentally benign metal catalysts such as iron(2) and cobalt(3) have also been developed. However, to avoid the drawbacks of metal usage such as toxicity and heavy transition metal impurities ...
