Further Development

Di(hetero)aryl ketones are important motifs present in natural products, pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. In recent years, Pd(II)-catalyzed acylation of (hetero)arenes in the presence of an oxidant has emerged as a catalytic alternative to classical acylation methods, reducing the production of toxic metal waste. Different directing groups and acyl sources are being studied for this purpose, although further development is required to face mainly selectivity problems in order to be applied in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Selected recent developments and applications are covered in this review.

Recent Developments

This review gives an overview on recent developments in methods for the construction of compounds with the 2,3-dihydrobenzo­furan core in the period 2012 to 2019. Interest in 2,3-dihydrobenzofurans is constantly increasing. The methods are divided into intermolecular and intramolecular approaches. Intermolecular approaches are subdivided according to the parent intermediate for the key reaction, while intermolecular approaches are subdivided according by which bond is formed in the key reaction. The transformation of benzofurans to dihydrobenzofurans and other miscellaneous methods are also discussed. Approaches useful for the synthesis of natural products are emphasized.1 Introduction2 Intermolecular Approaches2.1 o-Quinone Methides and o-Quinones2.2 p-Quinone Methides and p-Quinones2.3 Nitrogen-Containing Phenols and Quinones2.4 o-Hydroxyphenylcarbonyl Derivatives and Phenols2.5 Miscellaneous3 Intramolecular Approaches3.1 O–C2 Bond Forming3.2 C2–C3 Bond Forming3.3 C3–Aryl Bond Forming3.4 O–Aryl Bond Forming4 From BF to DHB5 Rearrangements and Aromatizations

The Relationship

The essays collected in this book represent recent advances in our understanding of speech acts-actions like asserting, asking, and commanding that speakers perform when producing an utterance. The study of speech acts spans disciplines, and embraces both the theoretical and scientific concerns proper to linguistics and philosophy as well as the normative questions that speech acts raise for our politics, our societies, and our ethical lives generally. It is the goal of this book to reflect the diversity of current thinking on speech acts as well as to bring these conversations together, so that they may better inform one another. Topics explored in this book include the relationship between sentence grammar and speech act potential; the fate of traditional frameworks in speech act theory, such as the content-force distinction and the taxonomy of speech acts; and the ways in which speech act theory can illuminate the dynamics of hostile and harmful speech. The book takes stock of well over a half century of thinking about speech acts, bringing this classicwork in linewith recent developments in semantics and pragmatics, and pointing the way forward to further debate and research.
