Design, Synthesis and Anticancer Evaluation of Novel SO2F-Containing Medicinally Privileged Structures via Ketone-Directed C–H Functionalization
The weakly coordinating ketone group-directed C–H functionalizations of chromones, flavones, 1,4-naphthoquinones, (thio)xanthones, and acridones with ethenesulfonyl fluoride under rhodium(III) or ruthenium(II) catalysis are described. These protocols efficiently provide a range of chromone-based scaffolds and xanthone...
