title: Synthesis of Dibenzofurans via C-H Activation of o-Iodo Diaryl Ethers.
abstract: An efficient method for the synthesis of dibenzofuran from o-iododiaryl ether using reusable Pd/C under ligand-free conditions has been developed. Synthesis of o-iododiaryl ether was achieved in one pot through sequential iodination and O-arylation of phenol under mild reaction conditions.
