Integrated Catalytic C−H Transformations for One-Pot Synthesis of 1-Arylisoindoles from Isoindolines via Palladium-Catalyzed Dehydrogenation Followed by C−H Arylation

A one-pot conversion of isoindolines to 1-arylisoindoles was established from palladium-catalyzed cascade C-H transformations, that is, the dehydrogenation of isoindolines to give isoindoles, with subsequent C-H arylation of the isoindoles.
