Abstract

A Pd (OAc) 2-catalyzed C (sp2)–H carbonylation protocol of arenes under carbon monoxide atmosphere has been developed. The scope of the carbonylation reaction is broad and tolerates a variety of useful functional groups. This reaction provides a novel and efficient method for the synthesis of biologically and pharmaceutically significant phenanthridinones.
