A controllable Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H arylation and dealcoholization of benzimidates with arylboronic esters was developed, delivering various biphenyl-2-carbonitriles and biphenyl-2-carbimidates by simply tuning the reaction conditions. This approach features high efficiency, good functional group tolerance, and easy operation. It also provides an alternative pathway to thoroughly exploit the directing group in transition-metal-catalyzed C-H activations.
