title: Cu-catalyzed mild C(sp2)-H functionalization assisted by carboxylic acids en route to hydroxylated arenes.
abstract: A formal Cu-catalyzed C(sp(2))-H hydroxylation assisted by benzoic acids is described. The procedure is characterized by its mild reaction conditions and wide substrate scope utilizing simple and cheap Cu catalysts, thus becoming a user-friendly and operationally simple protocol for C(sp(2))-H hydroxylation.
