The site-selective functionalization of C-H bonds within a peptide framework remains a challenging task of prime synthetic importance. Herein, the first Pd-catalyzed δ-C(sp<sup>2</sup>)-H acylation of Phe containing peptides with aldehydes is described. This oxidative coupling is distinguished by its site-specificity, tolerance of sensitive functional groups, scalability, and enantiospecificity and exhibits entire chemoselectivity for Phe motifs over other amino acid units. The compatibility of ...[more]
