“…First, we tested the electron-releasing groups such as methyl (4-6), tertiary butyl (7), methoxyl (8), and phenolic ester (9). Substrates with electron-withdrawing substitutes, for instance, fluoro (10-11), chloro (12)(13)(14), bromo (15), trifluoromethyl (16), and cyano (17) were tolerated well.
