title: Reaction of selenium dioxide with aromatic ketones in the presence of boron triflouride etherate: a protocol for the synthesis of triarylethanones.
abstract: An efficient regioselective protocol for the C-C bond formation by the unexpected α,α-diarylation of aromatic ketones with unactivated arenes in the presence of selenium dioxide and boron trifluoride etherate has been developed. The generality and functional tolerance of this protocol is demonstrated by the synthesis of a series of triarylethanones.
