“…Therefore, many organic chemists devote themselves to developing various strategies for this kind of reactions, especially the aerobic cleavage of C(CO)‐C bond that is used to produce acids, aldehydes, α ‐ketoesters, esters, amides, α‐ketoamides and β ‐ketophosphine oxides . Transition metals are generally considered as the catalyst to enable the aerobic oxidative C(CO)‐C bond cleavage . For example, several copper‐based catalyst systems such as CuI, pyridine/CuBr/BF 3 ⋅Et 2 O and Cu(NO 3 ) 2 ⋅3H 2 O were respectively demonstrated to be effective in the aerobic oxidative C(CO)–C cleavage.…”
