Cu-catalyzed oxidative C(sp2)-H cycloetherification of o-arylphenols for the preparation of dibenzofurans

A new process involving copper-catalyzed aerobic C(sp2)-H activation, followed by cycloetherification, has been developed. This reaction serves as a direct method for the preparation of multisubstituted dibenzofurans starting with o-arylphenols. The presence of a strong para-electron-withdrawing group (e.g., NO2) on the phenol is essential for the success of the reaction.
