Abstract
- Herein, we report a rhodium catalyzed directing‐group free regioselective C−H allylation of simple arenes. Readily available gem‐difluorinated cyclopropanes can be employed as highly reactive allyl surrogates via a sequence of C−C and C−F bond activation, providing allyl arene derivatives in good yields with high regioselectivity under mild conditions. The robust methodology enables facile late‐stage functionalization of complex bioactive molecules. The high efficiency of this reaction is also demonstrated by the high turnover number (TON, up to 1700) of the rhodium catalyst on gram‐scale experiments. Preliminary success on kinetic resolution of this transformation is achieved, providing a promising access to enantio‐enriched gem‐difluorinated cyclopropanes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
