An efficient palladium catalyzed decarboxylative acylation of arenes with mandelic acid derivatives via oxidative sp2 C–H activation in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide has been developed. The acylation reaction is assisted by a pyridine directing group. The starting materials are inexpensive and readily available. This method provides an economical and convenient way to synthesize aryl ketones
AbstractA chemoselective, palladium‐catalyzed, ligand‐directed ortho‐CH chlorination and acylation process has been developed, exhibiting high regioselectivity for 2‐arylpyridines bearing a meta‐substituent. Worthy of note is the fact that arylmethyl chlorides as new, readily available, and inexpensive reagents can selectively be utilized as chlorine or acyl sources.magnified image
