title: Rhodium-catalyzed oxidative ortho-acylation of benzamides with aldehydes: direct functionalization of the sp2 C-H bond.
abstract: A rhodium-catalyzed oxidative acylation of benzamides with aryl aldehydes via direct sp(2) C-H bond cleavage is described. In the presence of [Cp*RhCl(2)](2), AgSbF(6), and silver carbonate as an oxidant, N,N-diethyl benzamides can be effectively carbonylated to yield ortho-acyl benzamides.
