We report here a method of direct Friedel–Craftsbenzylation of arenes with benzylic alcohols using cheap and readily available bisulfate salt as the catalyst in hexafluoroisopropanol. The catalytic system is powerful with a quite diverse group of functionalized arenes and benzylic alcohols. These mild conditions provide a straightforward synthesis of a variety of unsymmetrical diarylmethanes in high

arylation of aromatic carbonyl compounds is reported. The use of 4 % FeCl3 or Fe(acac)3 as the catalyst, in combination with a slight excess of chlorotrimethylsilane and triethylsilane, chlorination of benzylic ketones and aldehydes with subsequent Friedel–Craftsalkylation of arenes is achieved. Although the method is limited by the general constraints associated with Friedel–Craftsalkylation reactions
