(Chemical Equation Presented) A process of elimination: The rhodium-catalyzed arylation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds with 9-aryl-10-benzyl-9,10-dihydroacridin-9-ols 1 as arylating reagents proceeds efficiently via β-aryl elimination of the rhodium alkoxide intermediates, to give the 1,4-addition products in high yields (see scheme; Bn = benzyl, cod = cycloocta-1,5-diene).
