Abstract:
Arenes containing conformationally flexible long alkyl chains have been successfully functionalized at the meta-position. Good to excellent meta selectivity is achieved for systems with up to 20 atoms between the target C-H bond and the coordinating heteroatom of the directing group. The palladium-catalyzed functionalization reactions include alkylation, cyanation, olefination, and acetoxylation. The meta selectivity is exclusively governed by the design of flexible pyrimidine-based scaffolds.

Two special sources may be considered when they are in phase. This can be easily achieved by feeding the two sources from the same source. An example would be synchronizing the two speakers by feeding them with the same source, such as the sound waves produced by a tuning fork. This setup ensures that the two sources have the same frequency and are...
