Abstract
A Pd/norbornene/Cu cooperative catalysis for the efficient synthesis of 2-(arylthio)aryl ketones from aryl halides and thioesters has been developed. The first example of cooperative catalysis by palladium, norbornene, and copper, wherein the C(O)-S bond of thioesters is cleaved by a Pd(II) palladacycle with the assistance of CuI, has been observed.
