Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed cyclocarbonylation of o-halobiaryls enables a synthesis of various substituted fluoren-9-ones bearing either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents in very high yields. This chemistry has been successfully extended to polycyclic and heterocyclic fluorenones.
