Abstract
Transition-metal free direct C–H arylation of benzene with aryl halides was achieved by meso-aryl-substituted [14]triphyrins(2.1.1) catalysts in an air atmosphere. Various aryl halides underwent successful direct C–H arylation of benzene to give moderate to high yields of biaryls. A radical mechanism is proposed for this triphyrin catalyzed C–H arylation reaction.
