Nickel-catalyzed direct C–H arylation of unactivated arenes with aryl halides

Full-size image
Readily available Ni(OAc)2·4H2O could catalyze direct C–H arylation of unactivated arenes with aryl bromides/iodides in presence of 1,10-phenanthroline as the ligand without using any additives. This protocol makes C–H arylation more practical and useful.
