Synthesis of biarylketones and phthalides from organoboronic acids and aldehydes catalyzed by cobalt complexes

Abstract
A cobalt-catalyzed addition of aryl- and alkenylboronic acids to aldehydes and phthalaldehyde to give the corresponding biarylketones and 3-aryl phthalides in good to excellent yields in one pot is described.
