Table 6. Oxidative Coupling of Arenes and Aryl Silanes Catalyzed by [AuI₂(Me₂dazdt)]I₃ (1a) and [AuBr₂(Me₂dazdt)]IBr₂ (2a)^a.

^aReactions were carried out using conditions optimized using DoE: [Au] = 1 mol %; [arene] = 0.345 M, and [aryl silane] = 0.23 M; r.t.

^bReported yields are of the purified isolated product after flash column chromatography and are the average of three experiments.

^cYields for reactions catalyzed by (Ph₃P)AuOTs (longer reaction time of 30 h) are taken from the literature.³³

^dProduct is isolated as a single regioisomer.

^e6.6:1.0 ratio of meta/ortho isomers.

^f4.1:1 ratio of para/ortho isomers.
