Abstract

Abstract The palladium-catalyzed hydroxycarbonylation of aryl and vinyl bromides in the presence of acetic anhydride and lithium formate as a carbon monoxide source has been developed. The combination of palladium (II) acetate with 1, 1′-bis (diphenylphosphino) ferrocene (dppf) is an efficient catalytic system when the reaction is carried out at 120 C.
