Abstract

A simple and efficient method for functionalization of electron-rich arenes and heteroarenes with unactivated alkenes by Au (III)-catalyzed intermolecular hydroarylation under mild reaction conditions was developed. This method features a short reaction time (5h) under mild conditions and has a broad substrate scope, including electron-rich arenes and heteroarenes, terminal and internal substituted aryl alkenes, and unactivated aliphatic ...
