Herein, we report the meta-CH olefination of arylmethanesulfonates aided by a potentially versatile aliphatic nitrile-directing group under microwave irradiation conditions with fair to very good yields and good to outstanding...

Herein, we report the first microwave-assisted remote-CH functionalization aided by a simple nitrile directing template. Notably, the present protocol showed broad substrate scope via enabling the meta-CH arylation, acetoxylation, and...
