Abstract

The highly active Friedel-Crafts alkylation (FCA) catalyst,[Ir (COD) Cl (SnCl3)(SnCl4)(arene)] + Cl-(1-SnCl 4), is easily generated in one-pot from [Ir (COD) Cl] 2 or [Ir (COD)(μ-Cl) Cl (SnCl3)] 2 (1) and SnCl4. The reaction of arenes, heteroarenes with benzyl, and allyl alcohols is promoted by 1-SnCl 4 (1 mol%) with high turnover frequency. Kinetic evidence is presented to establish FCA pattern. From dual-catalyst combination studies varying the ...
