Transition-metal-catalyzed cross-electrophile C(sp2)-(sp3) coupling and C-H alkylation reactions represent two efficient methods for the incorporation of an alkyl group into aromatic rings. Herein, we report a Pd-catalyzed cascade cross-electrophile coupling and C-H alkylation reaction of 2-iodo-alkoxylarenes with alkyl chlorides. Methoxy and benzyloxy groups, which are ubiquitous functional groups and common protecting groups, were utilized as crucial mediatorsviaprimary or secondary C(sp3)-H activation. The reaction provides an innovative and convenient access for the synthesis of alkylated phenol derivatives, which are widely found in bioactive compounds and organic functional materials.

The disclosed process can efficiently synthesize functionalized benzosuberenes. The process provides an improved method of production of benzosuberene and compounds containing a benzosuberene moiety, which is characterized by a ring closing methodology comprising reaction of a 5-phenylpentanoic acid with Eaton's reagent to form the benzosuberone. The process, optionally, further includes steps for adding a functional group at the ketone position.
