Abstract

The palladium-catalysed carbonylation of aryl bromides or iodides to give aromatic carboxylic acids,l esters,* amides ,3 aldehydes,4 a-0x0 amides,5 a-0x0 esters,6 and a-0x0 acids7 is well known. However, no reliable example of carbonylation of chlorobenzene has been reported; this would be of great industrial interest in view of the low cost of chloroaromatic compounds as compared with bromo or iodo analogues. The difficulty of carrying out the ...
