Abstract

The first Rh(I)-catalyzed asymmetric approach for the intermolecular functionalization of C(sp³)−H bonds is reported. For the first time, unsymmetrical N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) were used for asymmetric catalysis that is capable of achieving not only high site-selectivity but also enantioselectivity. The Rh(I)/NHC* catalytic systems were applied to asymmetric direct C(sp³)−H arylation, which provides a synthetic route toward enantioenriched triarylmethanes.
