Expedient C–H allylation of sulfoxonium ylides: merging C–H and C–C/C–het bond activation†
Abstract
Sulfoxonium ylide chelation-assisted C–H allylation of arenes has been accomplished utilizing strained vinyl carbo/heterocycles as the allyl surrogates via sequential C–H and C–C/het bond activation. Broad substrate scope, Co-catalysis, selectivity, and late-stage drug mutation are the important practical features.
