ABSTRACT

Three COming together: The first carbonylative Heck coupling reaction of aryl bromides and vinyl ethers leading to 1-aryl-3-alkoxy-2-propen-1-ones has been established (see scheme). Based on this coupling methodology, a novel one-pot synthesis of aryl-substituted pyrazoles was also realized.
