title: Palladium-Catalyzed Denitrogenative Synthesis of Aryl Ketones from Arylhydrazines and Nitriles Using O2as Sole Oxidant.
abstract: An efficient and simple palladium-catalyzed approach for the synthesis of aryl ketones from low-cost nitriles and arylhydrazines using molecular oxygen (O2) as sole oxidant via C-N bond cleavage is reported. Various aryl ketones were synthesized in moderate to good yields under mild conditions. A possible mechanism involving the PdII/Pd0catalytic cycle process is depicted, and a cationic palladium intermediate was detected by ESI-MS.
