摘要
C-C bond activation has emerged as a powerful tool for the construction of complex molecules.Herein,we report a dual ligands relay-promoted transformation of unstrained aryl,alkenyl and alkynyl ketones to the corresponding polyfluoroarenes and nitriles via C-C(=O)bond cleavage and subsequent decarboxylative arylation process.Various polyfluoroarene and nitrile products are obtained in one pot under cyanide-free conditions.The protocol features high atom economy,broad functional group tolerance and excellent heterocyclic compatibility.The late-stage functionalization of the drug and natural product demonstrated the synthetic utility of our protocol.Furthermore,the decisive role of the dual ligands was clarified and the mechanistic rationale including theβ-C elimination as the rate-limiting step was supported by detailed density functional theory(DFT)studies.
