Abstract

This chapter focuses on transition-metal-catalyzed aryl—aryl bond-forming reactions via double C—H activation. Biaryl scaffolds have received much attention as a privileged structure broadly found in biologically active natural products, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and functional molecules in material sciences, etc. Transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are the most general and efficient methods to synthesize biaryls, but both coupling partners need to be preactivated in transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions when compared with simple arenes. Over the past decade, significant advances have been made in transition-metal-catalyzed biaryl synthesis using simple arenes as substrates via C—H activation. This chapter summarizes representative examples of transition-metal-catalyzed biaryl synthesis using two simple arenes as substrates via double C—H activation.
