Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylation Reactions of Aryl Halides and Related Compounds

摘要

Palladium-catalyzed carbonylation reactions of aromatic halides in the presence of various nucleophiles have undergone rapid development since the pioneering work of Heck and co-workers in 1974, such that nowadays a plethora of palladium catalysts are available for different carbonylative transformations. The carboxylic acid derivatives, aldehydes, and ketones prepared in this way are important intermediates in the manufacture of dyes, pharmaceuticals, agro-chemicals, and other industrial products. In this Review, the recent academic developments in this area and the first industrial processes are summarized.
