Unexpectedly high activity of Zn(OTf)2·6H2O in catalytic Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction
He, Fei,Wu, Huayue,Chen, Jiuxi,Su, Weike
, p. 255 - 264 (2008)
Zn(OTf)2·6H2O was used to promote Friedel-Crafts acylation of aromatics. The work describes the high activity and efficiency of Zn(OTf)2·6H2O in acylation of aromatics, and the catalyst has surpassed most metal triflates in dispensing when dried at high temperature under vacuum before use.

Light-Driven Carboxylation of o-Alkylphenyl Ketones with CO2
Masuda, Yusuke,Ishida, Naoki,Murakami, Masahiro
supporting information, p. 14063 - 14066 (2015/11/25)
o-Alkylphenyl ketones undergo a C-C bond forming carboxylation reaction with CO2 simply upon irradiation with UV light or even solar light. The reaction presents a clean process exploiting light energy as the driving force for carboxylation of organic molecules with CO2.
