broad range of free alcohols and aromatichalides can be facilely employed in this transformation, representing a new paradigm for the C(sp3)–C(sp2) bond construction between free alcohols and aryl halides with the extrusion of formaldehyde. Moreover, mechanistic investigations have been conducted, leading to the identification of a tribenzoate cerium(III) complex as a viable intermediate.
