Abstract

The coupling reaction of aryl iodides with acetylacetone or ethyl cyanoacetate under catalysis of CuI/l-proline works at relatively mild conditions to provide 3-aryl-2, 4-pentanediones and α-aryl cyanoacetates in moderate to good yields.

Key words

cross coupling - arylation - aryl iodide - catalysis - additive
