Abstract

Abstract Aldol condensation of aldehydes with methyl ketones followed by anionic four- electron donor-based (type I) platinacycle-catalyzed addition reactions of arylboronic acids to form β-arylated ketones is described. Good to excellent yields of β-arylated ketones were obtained for the tandem reactions of aromatic/aliphatic aldehydes, methyl ketones, and arylboronic acids, and moderate yields were observed for the tandem reactions of α, β- ...
