Catalytic Synthesis of n-Alkyl Arenes through Alkyl Group Cross-Metathesis

Catalytic Synthesis of n-Alkyl Arenes through Alkyl Group Cross-Metathesis

n-Alkyl arenes were prepared in a one-pot tandem dehydrogenation/olefin metathesis/hydrogenation sequence directly from alkanes and ethylbenzene. Excellent selectivity was observed when (tBuPCP)IrH[subscript 2] was paired with tungsten monoaryloxide pyrrolide complexes such as W(NAr)(C[subscript 3]H...
