A palladium-catalyzed C-H functionalization route to ketones: Via the oxidative coupling of arenes with carbon monoxide

We describe the development of a new palladium-catalyzed method to generate ketones via the oxidative coupling of two arenes and CO. This transformation is catalyzed by simple palladium salts, and is postulated to proceed via the conversion of arenes into high energy aroyl triflate electrophiles. Exploiting the latter can also allow the synthesis of unsymmetrical ketones from two different arenes.

Synthesis of ketones via organolithium addition to acid chlorides using continuous flow chemistry

An efficient method for the synthesis of ketones using organolithium and acid chlorides under continuous flow conditions has been developed. In contrast to standard batch chemistry, over-addition of the organolithium to the ketone for the formation of the undesired tertiary alcohol has been minimised representing a direct approach toward ketones.

Enantioselective intramolecular C-H insertion reactions of donor-donor metal carbenoids

The first asymmetric insertion reactions of donor-donor carbenoids, i.e., those with no pendant electron-withdrawing groups, are reported. This process enables the synthesis of densely substituted benzodihydrofurans with high levels of enantio- and diaste
