Abstract

Abstract Secondary and/or tertiary alcohols and unsymmetrical ketones have been obtained in moderate to good yields by the palladium-catalyzed (5 mol%) carbonylative coupling of aryl iodides with alkylaluminum compounds under very mild conditions (20–50 C, 1 atm of carbon monoxide). The type of the reaction product depended on the aluminum reagent employed. While the selective formation of secondary alcohols was observed in the ...
