C-C Bond Formation via Double C-H Functionalization: Aerobic Oxidative Coupling as a Method for Synthesizing Heterocoupled Bisarenes

The aerobic oxidative coupling of arenes such as benzofuran and N -substituted indoles with benzene and derivatives thereof is described. The reaction is shown to take place in both inter- and intramolecular scenarios.
