Abstract

A palladium-catalyzed chemoselective carbonylative transformation of bromoaryl triflates has been established. The selective C−Br versus C−OTf functionalization can be remarkably tuned by the combination of ligand (Xantphos vs. DPPF) and solvent (toluene vs. DMSO). The respective ligand and solvent effects were rationalized by DFT calculations. More information can be found in the Full Paper by H. Jiao and X. F. Wu et al. (DOI: 10.1002/chem.201702015).
