title: A new catalytic Cu(II)/sparteine oxidant system for beta,beta-phenolic couplings of styrenyl phenols: synthesis of carpanone and unnatural analogs.
abstract: A new catalytic Cu(II)/sparteine system has been developed to promote beta,beta-phenolic couplings of styrenyl phenols en route to carpanone and related unnatural congeners in yields exceeding 85%.
