Highly linear selective, imine-directed hydroarylation of styrene has been achieved with cobalt-based catalytic systems featuring bis(2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)(phenyl)phosphine and either 2-methoxypyridine or DBU as a ligand and a Lewis base additive, respectively, thus affording a variety of 1,2-diarylethanes (bibenzyls) in good yields under mild reaction conditions. The triarylphosphine controls the regioselectivity, while the Lewis base significantly accelerates the reaction. Ligand screening and deuterium-labeling studies provide implications about the roles of the ligand and the Lewis base in the crucial C-C reductive elimination step.

A tandem isomerization/C-H activation of a My lie alcohols was performed using a catalytic amount of RuCI2(PPh3)3. A variety of ortho alkylated ketones have been obtained in excellent yields. This tandem process relies on an in situ generation of a carbonyl functional group that directs the ortho C-H bond activation.
