Abstract

Oxygenated terphenyls and their derivatives are naturally-occurring compounds of particular interest in many scientific fields in which they have been applied following synthetic modification.[1] Typically, their preparation mostly relies on elegant metal-catalyzed coupling reactions using substrates prefunctionalized with metal and halogen atoms.[2] Recently, direct arylation of carbon—hydrogen bonds in reactions of phenols with aryl halides have ...
