title = "Catalytic Friedel-Crafts Alkylation of Electron Rich Aromatic Derivatives with α-Aryl Diazoacetates Mediated by Br{\o}nsted Acids",
abstract = "The catalytic protonation of aryl diazoacetates by strong Br{\o}nsted acids, followed by a Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction with electron rich aromatic compounds, is reported. The reaction provided in a direct fashion 24 geminal diarylacetates in yields of ≤92%.",
