An organic cation as a silver( i ) analogue for the arylation of sp 2 and sp 3 C–H bonds with iodoarenes

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Reactions promoted by stoichiometric amounts of silver salts suffer from high cost, limited availability and raise environmental concerns. This manuscript describes studies leading to the discovery of a general replacement for silver with an inexpensive and convenient organic salt in palladium catalyzed direct C(sp2)–H and C(sp3)–H arylation reactions.
