A variety of α‐hydroxy‐α,α‐diaryl carbonylcompounds are selectively deoxygenated to give an important class of α,α‐diaryl carbonylcompounds using catalytic amount of aqueous HClO4 (70 %) and triethylsilane as hydride source.
proposals of α-carbonyl cation intermediates have been driven by chemical intuition and indirect evidence. Recently, wide interest in α-carbonyl cation chemistry has opened new gates to prepare α-functionalized carbonyl compounds. Though these intrinsically unstable carbocations are formed under forcing conditions (e.g., in a strong acid medium), their fleeting existence prohibits direct observation

While the carbonylolefination has been extensively studied and well documented, use of α-hydroxy ketones as precursors for the carbonylolefination is not reported, till date. Herein, a transition-metal-free and selective Knoevenagel-type deconstructive carbonylolefination of α-hydroxy ketones using arylacetonitriles under mild reaction conditions is presented. The reaction affords valuable scaffolds
