Bu4NI-catalyzed direct α-oxyacylation of diarylethanones with acyl peroxides.
The Bu4NI-catalyzed α-oxyacylation of diarylethanones with acyl peroxides is developed. The reaction is conducted at room temperature without metal catalysts and tolerates a series of functional groups leading to α-oxyacylated diarylethanones in moderate to good yields.
