title: Ligand-Promoted Rh(III)-Catalyzed Coupling of Aryl C-H Bonds with Arylboron Reagents.
abstract: Rhodium(III)-catalyzed C-H arylation of arenes with phenylboronic acid pinacol esters has been achieved using a readily removable N-pentafluorophenylbenzamide directing group for the first time. The use of a bidentate phosphine ligand (Binap) significantly increased the yield of the cross-coupling of C-H bonds with organoboron reagents.
