title: Palladium-catalyzed intramolecular decarboxylative coupling of arene carboxylic acids/esters with aryl bromides.
abstract: Give me a ring? An efficient approach has been developed for the intramolecular decarboxylative coupling of arene carboxylic acids/esters with aryl bromides catalyzed by palladium (see scheme). From a synthetic viewpoint, this method is highly attractive because the catalyst loading is low, the optimized reaction conditions are mild, and the substrate scope is broad.
