Significance

A highly useful method for the oxidative palladium-catalyzed coupling of simple ­arenes and ortho-phenylcarbamates was developed. The reaction proceeds via double C-H bond functionalization with high regioselectivities including electron-rich, -neutral, and -deficient arenes as substrates.
