Hydroarylation of Unactivated Olefins Catalyzed by Platinum(II) Complexes

The Pt(II) complex [( t bpy)Pt(Ph)(THF)][BAr′4] catalyzes the hydroarylation of olefins utilizing unactivated substrates. Preliminary studies indicate that the reactions proceed via Pt-mediated C−H activation rather than a traditional Friedel−Crafts pathway.
