Two efficient pathways for the synthesis of aryl ketones catalyzed by phosphorus-free palladium catalysts

Allylic alcohols, 1-buten-3-ol, 1-penten-3-ol and 1-octen-3-ol, reacted with aryl iodides (iodotoluene, 4-iodotoluene, 4-iodophenol and 4-iodanisole) under Heck reaction conditions to form corresponding saturated aryl ketones in one step. The same products were obtained in a two-step tandem reaction consisted of the Heck coupling of allylic alcohols with aryl iodides, followed by hydrogenation. Reactions were catalyzed by phosphorus-free palladium precursors modified with the menthol-substituted imidazolium chlorides. Formation of crystalline palladium nanoparticles, of the diameter up to 65 nm, in the reaction mixture was evidenced by TEM.
