A novel palladium-catalyzed interannular selective C-H silylation of 1,1'-biaryl-2-acetamides is described. The combination of palladium catalyst with copper oxidant enables meta- or ortho-selective C-H silylation by employing hexamethyldisilane as a trimethylsilyl source, which relies on the control of NBE derivatives as a switch, thus providing straightforward access to divergent silicon-containing 1,1'-biaryl-2-acetamides.

A regioselective ruthenium-catalyzed ortho-arylation of acetanilides with aromatic boronic acids is described. Later, ortho-arylated acetanilides were converted into phenanthridine and carbazole derivatives.
AbstractAn in situ generated cationic ruthenium(II) catalyst allowed for robust CH arylations of anilides with boronic acids. The optimized ruthenium catalyst was found to be both site selective and chemoselective, thereby providing the monoarylated products in excellent yields with ample substrate scope. The catalyst’s high efficacy furthermore set the stage for efficient CH arylations with borinic acids as well as potassium trifluoroborates.magnified image
