CHoose nickel: The nickel-catalyzed oxidative arylation of C(sp3)H bonds has been achieved. Several substituted arylboronic acids and various C(sp3)H bonds were found to be suitable substrates for this novel transformation, which is likely to proceed through a radical pathway. This method allows the introduction of simple ether derivatives to construct α-arylated ethers. FG=functional group.
