Electrosynthesis of heteroaromatic aldehydes by palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of heteroaromatic iodides in the presence of formic acid

The palladium-catalyzed electrocarbonylation of heteroaromatic iodides, performed in the presence of formic acid under one atmosphere of carbon monoxide, affords heteroaromatic aldehydes in moderate to good yields. It has been developed a new application of palladium-catalyzed formylation using carbon monoxide, formic acid and tertiary amines as ligands under electrochemical reducing conditions.
