Abstract
A method for conducting selenium-promoted intermolecular Friedel-Crafts (F-C) alkylation reactions has been developed with simple alkenes using trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate as a catalyst and N-phenylselenophthalimide as an efficient selenium source. Electron-rich arenes smoothly underwent F-C alkylation with a variety of alkenes to afford alkylated products in good yield and with high regioselectivity and diastereoselectivity. The regioselectivity and stereoselectivity of arenes and alkenes as well as a preliminary mechanism of the F-C alkylation reaction are discussed.
