The arylation of allylsilanes catalyzed by a rhodium complex is described. In the presence of a catalytic amount of RhCl(CO){P[OCH(CF3)(2)](3)}(2) and Ag2CO3, allyltriisopropylsilane reacts with iodoarenes in m-xylene at 120 degrees C to furnish the corresponding C-H bond arylation products in moderate yields.
