Direct C-H functionalizations by electrocatalysis is dominated by strongly coordinating N(sp<sup>2</sup> )-directing groups. In sharp contrast, direct electrocatalytic transformations of weakly-coordinating phenols remain underdeveloped. Herein, electrooxidative peri C-H alkenylations of challenging 1-naphthols were achieved by versatile rhodium(III) catalysis via user-friendly constant current electrolysis. The rhodaelectrocatalysis employed readily-available alkenes and a protic reaction mediu ...[more]
