Fig. 2: Scope for the aldehydes and ketones directly from phenols.

a Optimized reaction condition. b Scope for Aldehydes. c Scope for Ketones (R = -CH2CH2Ph). d Ketone scope with B(pin) Variation. e Scope for the acetophenones. f Scope for the α,β- unsaturated ketones. All the reported yields are isolated yields and have been calculated from phenols. The yields with * marks have been calculated from corresponding quinketal.
