Scheme 1. Strategies for Undirected C–H Alkylation of Arenes.

Scheme 1

(a) Conceptual representation of various strategies for undirected C–H alkylation of arenes. (b) Experimental results for palladium-catalyzed aryl C–H alkylation via bromination versus thianthrenation. Two-step yield given for compounds 1 and 2. aProduct not detected by LCMS, GCMS, 1H NMR spectroscopy, and 13C NMR spectroscopy (see the Supporting Information for details).
