Cao, Dawei published the artcileLight-driven transition-metal-free direct decarbonylation of unstrained diaryl ketones via a dual C-C bond cleavage, Formula: C12H9NO, the publication is Nature Communications (2022), 13(1), 1805, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

An efficient light-driven transition-metal-free strategy for decarbonylation of unstrained diaryl ketones R¹C(O)R² (R¹ = Ph, 2H-1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl, thiophen-2-yl, etc.; R² = Ph, 4-methoxyphenyl, pyridin-2-yl, etc.) to construct biaryl compounds R¹R² through dual inert C – C bonds cleavage was reported. This reaction featured mild reaction conditions, easy-to-handle reactants and reagents, and excellent functional groups tolerance. The mechanistic investigation and DFT calculation suggest that this strategy proceeds through the formation of dioxy radical intermediate via a single-electron-transfer (SET) process between photo-excited diaryl ketone and DBU mediated by DMSO, followed by removal of CO₂ to construct biaryl compounds
