Both cyclic and acyclic ethers are suitable substrates for this transformation, which comprised the functional- ization of two C-H bonds: the sp3 C-H of ether and sp2 C-H of phenyl group. The kinetic isotope effect (KIE) revealed that the cleavage of sp3 C-H bond would be involved in the rate-determining step.展开更多
