The first example of near-room-temperature α-arylation of benzo[b]thiophenes is reported. The discovery rests on the observation of a switch in α-/β-regioselectivity at different loadings of Pd2(dba)3·CHCl3 in the coupling between benzo[b]thiophene and 4-iodotoluene. We show that this unprecedented regioselectivity switch is driven by a Ag(I)-mediated C-H activation at the α-C-H position, which becomes the dominant mode of reactivity at low concentrations of Pd. Competition experiments, kinetic studies, KIE, and D/H scrambling experiments have been carried out supporting this mechanism.

A practical protocol was developed that allows performing decarboxylative cross-coupling reactions in continuous flow reactors. Various biaryls were thus synthesized from aromatic carboxylic acids and aryl triflates using a Cu/Pd-catalyst system.
