Abstract

C−H hydroxylation of aryl acetamides and alkyl phenylacetyl esters was accomplished via challenging distal weak O‐coordination by versatile ruthenium(II/IV) catalysis. The ruthenium(II)‐catalyzed C−H oxygenation of aryl acetamides proceeded through C−H activation, ruthenium(II/IV) oxidation and reductive elimination, thus providing step‐economical access to valuable phenols. The p‐cymene‐ruthenium(II/IV) manifold was established by detailed experimental and DFT‐computational studies.
