Abstract

Abstract A simple one-pot synthesis of phthalazinones by the condensation and intra- molecular carbonylative cyclization of 2-bromobenzaldehydes with hydrazines is reported. This method utilizes solid Co 2 (CO) 8 as carbonyl source making it readily accessible in small-scale laboratory applications.
