Abstract

AbstractRuthenium‐catalyzed direct C−H alkenylation of 1,8‐naphthalimide has been explored using cyclic imide as a weak directing group and successfully introduce alkenyl group(s) into 1,8‐naphthalimide skeleton at the inactive C2 and/or C7 position(s). The aromatic ring of 1,8‐naphthalimide is substituted with electron‐withdrawing and ‐donating groups, and N‐alkyl/aryl groups on cyclic imide are compatible in these coupling reactions.
