Abstract

Abstract: A novel regioselective α-arylation of coumarins with readily available arenesulfonyl chlorides and sodium arenesulfinates via palladium-catalyzed direct CÀH functionalizations under mild reaction conditions is described. This protocol presents an unexpected and highly regio-controlled arylation of coumarins at C-3 to construct interesting 3-arylcoumarins with fascinating biological and fluorescent properties. The regioselectivity observed is in ...
