title: Rh-catalyzed sulfonic acid group directed ortho C-H olefination of arenes.
abstract: A Rh-catalyzed ortho C-H olefination of arenes directed by a sulfonic acid group was developed with good yields and a broad reaction scope. Efficient performance of the catalyst caused this electron-poor aromatic C-H to be activated effectively and unactivated alkenes are also suitable for this reaction.
