Complementary chemistry: A one-pot method for the site-selective alkylation of arenes controlled by steric effects is reported. The process occurs through Ir-catalyzed C-H borylation, followed by Pd- or Ni-catalyzed coupling with alkyl electrophiles. This selectivity complements that of the typical Friedel-Crafts alkylation; meta-selective alkylation of a broad range of arenes with various electronic properties and functional groups occurs in good yield with high site selectivity.
