title: Phosphine ligand triggered oxidative decarbonylative homocoupling of aromatic aldehydes: selectively generating biaryls and diarylketones.
abstract: A novel rhodium-catalyzed oxidative decarbonylative homocoupling of aromatic aldehydes to generate biaryls and diarylketones selectively and efficiently, triggered by the choice of different phosphine ligands.
