On December 31, 2019, Cai, Zhong-Jian; Liu, Chen-Xu; Wang, Qiang; Gu, Qing; You, Shu-Li published an article.Application In Synthesis of 5-Iodobenzofuran The title of the article was Thioketone-directed rhodium(I) catalyzed enantioselective C-H bond arylation of ferrocenes. And the article contained the following:

Planar chiral ferrocenes have received great attention in both academia and industry. Although remarkable progresses have been made over the past decade, the development of efficient and straightforward methods for the synthesis of enantiopure planar chiral ferrocenes remains highly challenging. Herein, authors report a rhodium(I)/phosphonite catalyzed thioketone-directed enantioselective C-H bond arylation of ferrocenes. Readily available aryl iodides are used as the coupling partners in this transformation, leading to a series of planar chiral ferrocenes in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 86% yield, 99% ee). Of particular note, heteroaryl coupled ferrocenes, which are difficult to access with previous approaches, can be obtained in satisfactory results. The experimental process involved the reaction of 5-Iodobenzofuran(cas: 60770-67-4).Application In Synthesis of 5-Iodobenzofuran
