, p. 4867 - 4873 (2004)
Prompted by samarium metal in DMF with TMSCl or iodine as an activator, or by SmI2/THF system, diarylmethanones react readily with DMF to afford benzoins in moderate to good yields via rearrangement of aryl groups. As for asymmetric diarylmethanones, products resulting from the migration of either aryl group were obtained, where the migration of aryl groups shows certain priority.
Direct Formation of Benzoins from Diarylmethanones via a Rearrangement Reaction Promoted by Samarium Metal in DMF

Diarylmethanones react readily with DMF when promoted by samarium metal in DMF with TMSCl or iodine as an activator, to afford benzoins in good to excellent yields via rearrangement of aryl groups. As for asymmetric diarylmethanones, products resulting from the migration of either aryl group were obtained, where the migration of aryl groups shows certain priority.
