Abstract
In this issue of <i>Chem</i>, Morandi and coworkers report an exciting reversible transfer hydroarylation between ketones and unstrained arylated alcohols. Through a Rh-catalyzed β-aryl elimination process, the aryl moiety "shuttles" from the alcohol to the ketone substrate, which provides a milder alternative to conventional Grignard and organolithium addition chemistry.
