Abstract

An expedient route to substituted dihydrochalcones is reported. The key step is a palladium- assisted arylation of 1-aryl-2-propen-1-ols. This two-step/one-purification process allows the synthesis of a wide range of compounds with original substitution patterns, including polyphenolic derivatives.
