Abstract
In this issue of Chem, Yamaguchi and coworkers introduce an exciting strategy for the deacylative cross-coupling of aromatic ketones. Aromatic ketones are first converted into aromatic esters via sequential Claisen and regioselective retro-Claisen condensation. The esters then undergo transition-metal-catalyzed decarbonylative cross-coupling reactions with various nucleophiles affording C–C and C–heteroatom bond formation products.
