Iron oxide mediated direct C–H arylation/alkylation at α-position of cyclic aliphatic ethers

Abstract

We report a new and efficient iron oxide catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between organometallic species such as alkyl/arylmagnesium halides or organolithium species and α-hydrogen bearing cyclic aliphatic ethersviaactivation of C(sp3)–H. This is the first example of iron oxide mediated direct C–C bond formation without expensive or toxic ligands.
