An efficient, cost-effective method useful for the production of aryl ketones that minimizes the generation of toxic byproducts is disclosed. The method utilizes a metal triflate salt to catalyze the reaction between the carboxylic acid substrate and the aromatic substrate. The water generated by the reaction is collected and removed during the process.
