A catalytic synthesis of selectively substituted biaryls through sequential intermolecular coupling involving arene and ketone C–H bond functionalization
Giovanni Maestri, Nicola Della Ca
and Marta Catellani
Selectively substituted biaryls containing a ketone unit are obtained under mild conditions in satisfactory yields by a simple reaction of ortho-substituted aryl iodides and ketones in the presence of palladium and norbornene as catalysts.
