Here in we report, rhodium(III)-catalyzed decarboxylative acylation of arenes using α-oxocarboxylic acids as acyl surrogate. In this strategy, O–NHAc group act as an autocleavable oxidizing directing group (ODGauto), thus giving rise to ortho-acylated phenols in moderate to good yields. Mechanistic studies provided strong support for a kinetically relevant C–H bond activation. According to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of Rhodium catalyzed decarboxylative acylation.
