A Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative acylation of aromaticketones with α-oxocarboxylic acids was developed, and 1,2-diacylbenzenes were formed in up to 90% yield with excellent ortho-selectivity. This work demonstrates the first successful attempt to direct C–H acylation of aromaticketones without the need for prederivatization to imines. The acylation reaction was inhibited by radical scavengers such
