Abstract
Ketones are ubiquitous patterns found in various biological molecules and natural products. In recent years, a number of acylation methods have been developed based on the use of α-oxocarboxylic acids as acyl-transfer reagents, with particular emphasis on the photoinduced decarboxylative acylation of α-keto acids. This review focuses on the latest advancements in acylation methodologies through the decarboxylation of α-keto acids over the past several years, highlighting their product diversity, selectivity, and applicability. Where possible, the mechanistic rationale is presented, providing a positive outlook for the promising future of this field.
