Abstract

This review delves into recent advances and significant breakthroughs in the field of the catalytic Friedel–Crafts alkylation of targeted arenes or heteroarenes. Though a few earlier literatures are referenced, the main emphasis of this review focuses on the literature mainly published between 2015 and March 2023.

1 Introduction

2 History and Background

3 Alcohols as Alkylating Agents

4 Aldehydes and Ketones as Alkylating Agents

5 Alkyl Fluorides as Alkylating Agents

6 Epoxides as Alkylating Agents

7 Cyclopropanes as Alkylating Agents

8 Conclusion and Outlook

Key words

Friedel–Crafts - organocatalytic - alkylating agents - asymmetric catalysis - arenes/heteroarenes
