Abstract

Chiral di- and trimethoxysubstituted alkylbenzenes underwent oxidative cross-dehydrogenative coupling reactions with arenes and related oxidative coupling reactions with silyl nucleophiles in moderate to good yields (41–99%) and with significant diastereoselectivities (dr = 71:29 to >95:5).
