Abstract
Versatile ruthenium(II) complexes allow for site-selective C-H oxygenations with weakly-coordinating aldehydes. The challenging C-H functionalizations proceed with high chemoselectivity by rate-determining C-H metalation. The new method features an ample substrate scope, which sets the stage for the step-economical preparation of various bioactive heterocycles.
