Synthesis of 2-Benzylphenyl Ketones by Aryne Insertion into Unactivated C-C Bonds

A transition-metal-free procedure to access to functionalized 2-benzylphenyl ketones is described by direct insertion of arynes into benzylic C-C bonds. This reaction was promoted by cesium fluoride at room temperature, allowing the products to form in high selectivity and achieve good functional group tolerance.
