title: Rhodium(III)-catalyzed oxidative carbonylation of benzamides with carbon monoxide.
abstract: An efficient strategy for the oxidative carbonylation of aromatic amides via C-H/N-H activation to form phthalimides using an Rh(III) catalyst has been developed. The reaction shows a preference for C-H bonds of electron-rich aromatic amides and tolerates a variety of functional groups.
