Phenanthrene Synthesis by Palladium(II)-Catalyzed γ-C(sp2)-H Arylation, Cyclization, and Migration Tandem Reaction

Phenanthrene is an important structural motif in chemistry and materials science, and many synthetic routes have been developed to construct its skeleton. However, synthesis of unsymmetric phenanthrenes remains a challenge. Here, an efficient one-pot tandem reaction for the preparation of phenanthrenes via sequential γ-C(sp2)-H arylation, cationic cyclization, dehydration, and 1,2-migration was developed. A wide range of symmetric and unsymmetric phenanthrenes with diversified functional groups were synthesized with good to excellent yields.
