Key words

para-selective reaction - ketonization - vinyl ethers

Significance

The authors report a direct para-selective ketonization of arenes. This method makes use of a reusable template to ensure high selectivity.


 

Comment

A well-defined hard–soft interaction suppresses competitive routes and enables the functionalization of often challenging electron-poor systems.
