Abstract
Ketones exist widely in naturally occurring products and are indispensable building blocks in organic synthesis. Carbonylation represents one of the most straightforward methods for ketone preparation and has become an attractive field in modern organic chemistry as well. Among the strategies, photocatalytic carbonylation is also worthy of further exploration. Herein, we developed a three-component carbonylation that provides a new method for the synthesis of ketones from Hantzsch esters, CO and styrenes. The reaction was performed under a blue light environment and yields a series of ketones with moderate to good yields.
