Mild and highly regioselective synthesis of biaryl acids via Rh(I)-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative coupling of benzoic acids using sodium chlorite as oxidant
A mild and efficient synthesis for the biaryl acids via rhodium-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction has been developed. This novel protocol with sodium chlorite as an oxidant featured many advantages such as mild reaction conditions, high regioselectivity, tolerance of various functional groups, and good to excellent yields.
