A method for the palladium catalyzed intramolecular arylation of aromatic C-H bonds using phenolic electrophiles is presented. This transformation allows for the efficient synthesis of various heterocyclic motifs including furans, carbazoles, indoles, and lactams. Additionally, a protocol for the one-pot sequential tosylation/arylation of phenol derivatives is reported.
