The products were obtained in moderate to excellent yields;more importantly, the use of toxic ligands and solvents was avoided. A broad range of aryl boronic acids and scalable processes make this methodology valuable and versatile for the synthesis of a broad range of aryl sulfides.展开更多

In addition, Sc(OTf)_3 was capable of achieving excellent 1,2-selectivity in the corresponding reaction of α,β-unsaturated ketones. This method provides a facile access to differently substituted β-hydroxy α,α-difluoro ketones, versatile synthons for difluomethylated tertiary alcohols.展开更多
