39. 4Sn and tetraphenylborates have been reported; see refs 12c and 11a. However, in these reactions, no oxidant was used. As suggested, insertion of a Rh(I) complex into a C - H aryl bond (aryl-H activation) leads to a HRh(III)aryl species which undergoes further reaction. Our process is different since an external oxidant is necessary and the "C-H-activation" probably occurs via electrophilic aromatic substitution. In fact, without oxidant our reactions did not proceed.
