Metal-catalyzed chelation-assisted C-H olefinations have emerged as powerful tools for the construction of functionalized alkenes. Herein, we describe the rhoda-electrocatalyzed C-H activation/alkenylation of arenes. The olefinations of challenging electron-poor benzamides were thus accomplished in a fully dehydrogenative fashion under electrochemical conditions, avoiding stoichiometric chemical oxidants, and with H<sub>2</sub> as the only byproduct. This versatile alkenylation reaction also fea ...[more]
