A novel iron catalyzed hydroarylation, methylarylation, and diarylation of styrenes to form unsymmetrical 1, 1-diarylalkanes with electron rich anisole and 1, 3, 5-trimethoxybenzene under mild conditions have been developed. Benzoyl peroxide is used as an oxidant for hydroarylation, whereas in the case of methylarylation and diarylation the oxidant tert-butyl peracetate is used.
