Pd/C-catalyzed direct formylation of aromatic iodides to aryl aldehydes using carbon dioxide as a C1 resource†
Abstract
Pd/C-catalyzed direct formylation of aromatic iodides to aryl aldehydes using CO2 as a C1 resource was realized for the first time in the presence of hydrosilanes and base DBU under mild conditions, giving a series of aldehydes in good yields.
