Abstract
Pd(OAc)2/1,10-phenanthroline-catalysed addition of potassium phenyltrifluoroborate to aliphatic dinitriles in 2-MeTHF has been developed, achieving diphenyl diones in moderate to excellent yields. The scope of the developed approach was successfully explored toward the addition of potassium phenyltrifluoroborate to aromatic dinitriles. Additionally, a plausible pathway for the formation of the diones has been proposed.
