A review of new developments in the Friedel–Crafts alkylation – From green chemistry to asymmetric catalysis

The development of efficient Friedel–Crafts alkylations of arenes and heteroarenes using only catalytic amounts of a Lewis acid has gained much attention over the last decade. The new catalytic approaches described in this review are favoured over classical Friedel–Crafts conditions as benzyl-, prop...
