Herein we report a nickel-catalyzed aryl addition/intramolecular esterification in a cascade fashion. Under the combination of commercially available nickel precursor and tridentate ligand, the one pot protocol offers a direct, simple and regioselective approach to access 3-aryl phthalide derivatives from two readily available substrates with good efficiency, broad scope as well as satisfactory functional

We report that ruthenium complexes effectively catalyzed the carboxylate-directed addition of aromatic C–H bonds to aldehydes. The reactions of aromatic acids with a variety of aromatic aldehydes including unactivated ones proceeded efficiently to give the corresponding isobenzofuranone derivatives in high yields. The combination of ruthenium(II) complexes with tricyclohexylphosphine led to highly
