title: Copper-catalyzed oxidative C-H/C-H cross-coupling of benzamides and thiophenes.
abstract: A copper-catalyzed oxidative C-H/C-H cross-coupling of benzamides and thiophenes has been developed. This reaction exhibits a broad substrate scope and excellent tolerance of functional groups. The directing group could be readily removed to afford 2-thienylbenzoic acids.
