A homocoupling of p-xylene to afford biaryl- or diarylmethane as a major product has been carried out in a catalytic system of Pd(OAc)(2)/CF3CO2H (TFA)/K2S2O8. In this coupling reaction, the aryl and benzylic C-H bonds of p-xylene can be selectively activated just by tuning the concentration of TFA.
