An iodine mediated aromatization leading to a one-pot synthesis of iodo-N-arylanilines and N-arylanilines is reported. This highly regioselective aliphatic-aromatic transformation can be performed with various combinations of 2-cyclohexenones and anilines. The presence of a directing group is crucial for achieving

The current approach to improve and tune the enantioselective performances of transition-metal catalysts for asymmetric synthesis is mostly focused to modifications of the steric properties of the ancillary ligands of the active metal. Nevertheless, it is also known that electrostatic

An efficient approach to prepare para-aryl phenols has been developed by using a Pd-catalyzed tandem γ-arylation/aromatization of 2-cyclohexen-1-one derivatives with aryl bromides. This approach provides various p-aryl phenols from the phenol surrogates, 2-cyclohexen-1-one derivatives, in a single reaction step on
