title: Modular Synthesis of Arylacetic Acid Esters, Thioesters, and Amides from Aryl Ethers via Rh(II)-Catalyzed Diazo Arylation.
abstract: One-pot formation of arylacetic acid esters, thioesters, and amides via Rh(II)-catalyzed arylation of a Meldrum's acid-derived diazo reagent with electron-rich arenes is described. The methodology was used to efficiently synthesize an anticancer compound.
