title: Rhodium(III)-catalyzed arylation of Boc-imines via C-H bond functionalization.
abstract: The first rhodium-catalyzed arylation of imines proceeding via C-H bond functionalization is reported. Use of a non-coordinating halide abstractor is important to obtain reactivity. Aryl-branched N-Boc-amines are formed, and a wide range of functionality is compatible with the reaction.
