Synthesis of unsymmetrical ketones by applying visible-light benzophenone/nickel dual catalysis for direct benzylic acylation
Keyword(s):
The photochemical reactivity of benzophenone is utilized for direct benzylic C–H bond acylation of methylbenzenes via H-atom abstraction as a key step. The reaction offers a robust method for synthesizing ketones using acid chlorides and anhydrides.
