title: A Convenient Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylative Synthesis of Benzofuran-2(3 H)-ones with Formic Acid as the CO Source.
abstract: A general and convenient palladium-catalyzed carbonylation procedure for the synthesis of benzofuran-2(3 H)-ones from phenols and aldehydes has been developed. With formic acid as the CO source, a variety of benzofuran-2(3 H)-ones were obtained in moderate to good yields.
