title: Rhodium(III)-catalyzed C-H olefination for the synthesis of ortho-alkenyl phenols using an oxidizing directing group.
abstract: By using an oxidizing directing group, a mild, efficient Rh(III) catalyzed C-H olefination reaction between N-phenoxyacetamides and alkenes was developed. This reaction provided a straightforward way for the synthesis of ortho-alkenyl phenols, and the directing group is traceless in the product.
