Rh(III)-catalyzed oxidative coupling of unactivated alkenes via C-H activation.

ABSTRACT: Oxime directed aromatic C-H bond activation and oxidative coupling to alkenes is reported using a cationic Rh(III) catalyst. Significantly, the method can be used to oxidatively couple unactivated, aliphatic alkenes.
