Abstract

As a powerful tool, the dearomatization of phenols has been explored extensively and utilized by organic chemists during the course of complex syntheses. This review highlights recent advances in phenol dearomatizations, especially those accomplished in an enantioselective manner, and the application of dearomatization strategies in complex syntheses.
