Abstract

Correction for ‘Ligand design for Rh(III)-catalyzed C–H activation: an unsymmetrical cyclopentadienyl group enables a regioselective synthesis of dihydroisoquinolones’ by Todd K. Hyster et al., Chem. Sci., 2015, 6, 254–258.


In the original article, Fig. 1 describes the coupling of O-pivaloyl benzhydroxamic acids with vinyl cyclohexane. Upon further analysis, the authors discovered that [RhCp*Cl2]2 provides lactam 4b preferentially (11[thin space (1/6-em)]:[thin space (1/6-em)]1 rr and 90% yield) while [RhCptCl2]2 provides lactam 4a (10[thin space (1/6-em)]:[thin space (1/6-em)]1 rr and 75% yield). The authors regret the error. A modified Fig. 1 is provided herein to clarify this error.
