title: Rh(III) -catalyzed hydroacylation reactions between N-sulfonyl 2-aminobenzaldehydes and olefins.
abstract: Metal-catalyzed hydroacylation of olefins represents an important atom-economic synthetic process in CH activation. For the first time highly efficient Rh(III) Cp*-catalyzed hydroacylation was realized in the coupling of N-sulfonyl 2-aminobenzaldehydes with both conjugated and aliphatic olefins, leading to the synthesis of various aryl ketones. Occasionally, oxidative coupling occurred when a silver(I) oxidant was used.
