Tandem Isomerization and C–H Activation: Regioselective Hydroheteroarylation of Allylarenes

Abstract

The first Ni-promoted prototype reaction based on the tandem C–H activation of heteroarenes with alkene isomerization is demonstrated, leading to the branched hydroheteroarylation products. Simultaneously, the reaction selectivity can be chemically switched to linear adducts through Ni–Al tandem catalysis
