Abstract

AbstractA Ru‐catalyzed intramolecular hydroarylation of arenes in an aqueous medium is presented herein. With the aid of methyl phenyl sulfoximine or an amide directing group, this atom‐efficient hydroarylation of arenes ensued dihydrobenzofuran derivatives. Sequential double hydroarylation of arene motifs resulted in highly peripheral‐decorated heterocycles. Deuterium labeling studies and control experiments offer valuable information in understanding the reactivity and the mechanistic data.
