55. Another synthetic method of symmetrical diaryl ketones from Ar-m (m = Hg,3a,16a Bi, 16b Sn, 3b Pb, 16c or B16d,16e) and CO without oxidants is known, where Ar-m oxidatively adds to catalysts. Comparedto the harshness of the conditions, 3a,16a toxicity,3a,3b16a16c and/or availability3a3b16a-16e of starting materials in comparison with m = Zn, and the low to moderate yields of products reported, 3a3b16b,16d,16e our method is far more useful.(a) Larock, R.

67. Under conditions similar to those of runs 1-5, functionalized 1, e.g., 1c or 1f, took part in the reaction to yield the corresponding biaryls in 82% or 97% yields, respectively. Recently, Rh-catalyzed oxidative homocoupling of arylmetallic nucleophiles was reported for the first time, using arylboronic acids and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl radical as the nucleophile and oxidant, respectively.
