Palladium-Catalyzed Desulfitative Oxidative Coupling between Arenesulfinic Acid Salts and Allylic Alcohols: A Strategy for the Selective Construction of β-Aryl Ketones and Aldehydes
efficient palladium-catalyzed desulfitative oxidative coupling of sodium arylsulfinites for highly region-selective Heck-type reaction of allylicalcohols has been developed. The compatibility of the functionalities of −I, −Br, and −F would explore further postfunctionalization of the C–X bonds. This method provides a new and straightforward protocol for the synthesis of β-aryl ketones and aldehydes. The
