Abstract In the presence of a bimetallic Pd/Cu system with 1,10‐phenanthroline as ligand and either air or N ‐methylmorpholine ‐oxide oxidant, electron‐deficient benzoic acids undergo oxidative decarboxylative coupling unprotected amines. This operationally simple aniline synthesis is widely applicable respect to amine gives good yields, even on multigram scale. The orthogonality this reaction other Pd‐catalyzed cross‐couplings allows concise multisubstituted arenes by sequential C−C, C−Cl,...
A study on the arylation of heteroatom nucleophiles by using activated haloarenes, with or without metal catalysts, is reported. discussion concerning involvement traces metals presented, supported an unexpected ''ligand'' effect in absence added catalysts. We believe that frontier between nucleophilic aromatic substitution and catalysis will likely prove to be much harder delimit than generally thought.

An α-vinylation of enolizable ketones has been developed by using β-bromostyrenes and a KOtBu/NMP system. β,γ-Unsaturated E configuration were obtained in excellent yield selectivity. Further synthetic possibilities are highlighted one-pot functionalization via trapping intermediate dienolates with alkyl, allyl, benzyl, propargyl halides to generate quaternary centers. The reported transformation is believed involve phenylacetylene propargylic alcohol derivatives.
An original metal-free procedure for the synthesis of biarylmethanes is disclosed herein. The reactions occur with high selectivity starting from aryl iodides and benzylic ketones in presence superbasic media (CsOH/DMSO). This allows a straightforward access to wide range biarylmethane derivatives substituted electron-withdrawing -donating substituents.
Various aryl ketones are efficiently transformed via the reaction with aryliodides, bromides, and chlorides.
