Abstract
Ghosting the directing group: A clever design of a nitrile based catalyst directing group, serves as tool in the palladium‐catalyzed meta‐olefination of phenol derivatives. This group can be removed tracelessly, thus providing a convenient route to meta‐substitution of phenols, a transformation that cannot be conducted by classic aromatic substitution chemistry.
