The deprotonative functionalization of toluenes, for their weak acidity, generally needs strong bases, thus leading to the requirement of harsh conditions and the generation of by-products. Direct nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction of amides with organometallic reagents could provide an ideal solution for ketone synthesis. However, the inert amides and highly reactive organometallic reagents bring great challenges for an efficient and selective synthetic approach. Herein, we reported an lithium diisopropylamide (LDA)-promoted benzylic aroylation of toluenes with unactivated tertiary benzamides, providing a direct and efficient synthesis of various aryl benzyl ketones. This process features a kinetic deprotonative functionalization of toluenes with a readily available base LDA. Mechanism studies revealed that the directed ortho-lithiation of the tertiary benzamide with LDA promoted the benzylic kinetic deprotonation of toluene and triggered the nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction with the amide.

A facile and cost-effective method for the preparation of fluoroalkylated compounds has been described by the direct photoexcitation of halofluoroalkanes with blue light absorptivity, enabling the difluoroalkylation of aryl ketones. The methodology has provided an efficient, mild, and catalyst-free synthetic method for quaternary difluoroalkylated arenes and tetrasubstituted monofluoroalkenes.

The first general palladium catalyst for the catalytic mono-α-arylation of aryl- and heteroarylketones with aryl mesylates and tosylates is described. The newly developed indolyl-derived phosphine ligand L7 has been identified to promote this reaction eff

A Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of α-pivaloxyl ketones via Ni-catalyzed sp3 C-O activation to produce α-aryl ketones is developed. This study offers a convenient method to construct α-arylation products from readily available α-hydroxyl carbonyl compounds.

A general palladium-catalyzed carbonylative cross-coupling reaction of benzyl chlorides with potassium aryltrifluoroborates in water has been developed. Applying this improved methodology 16 different 1,2-diarylethanones have been synthesized in 40-89% yield. Copyright
Heck reactions of α- or β-substituted enol ethers with aryl bromides catalysed by a tetraphosphane/palladium complex - Direct access to acetophenone or 1-arylpropanone derivatives

cis,cis,cis-1,2,3,4-Tetrakis(diphenylphosphanylmethyl)cyclopentane/ [PdCl(C3H5)]2 efficiently catalyses the Heck reaction of α- and β-substituted enol ethers with aryl bromides. The arylation of 1-phenyl-1-(trimethylsilyloxy) ethylene led directly to the 2-aryl-1-phenylethanones. Similar reaction rates were observed with electron-rich, electron-deficient or sterically congested aryl bromides. Heck reaction with benzyl isopropenyl ether gave a mixture of isomers. However, this mixture gave selectively the 1-arylpropanones after hydrolysis. Employing β-methoxystyrene, 3-ethoxyacrylonitrile or methyl 3-methoxyacrylate, the regioselective α-arylation of these enol ethers was observed in all cases, but mixtures of (Z) and (E) isomers were generally obtained, which in many cases yielded a single ketone product after acid treatment. The stereoselectivity of this reaction depends on steric and electronic factors, and better stereoselectivities in favour of (Z) isomers were observed with electron-rich or sterically congested aryl bromides. Higher yields were obtained for this reaction with electron-rich or sterically congested aryl bromides than with electron-poor aryl bromides. These observations suggest that the rate-limiting step of the catalytic cycle is not the oxidative addition of the aryl bromide to the palladium complex with these substituted enol ethers.
