Abstract

The first palladium‐catalyzed construction of ketones through Suzuki–Miyaura reaction by using acid fluorides is described. In contrast to typical acyl electrophiles such as acid chlorides, acid fluorides are uncommon acyl electrophiles to use in boron‐based coupling reactions, probably due to a high level of stability toward nucleophiles. This first attempt to use acid fluorides as a coupling partner with boronic acids allowed highly functional group tolerance and a wide substrate scope while affording various ketones in effective yields.
