A palladium-catalyzed ortho-selective CH bond chlorination reaction for the preparation of 2-chloro aromatic ketones was described. Both electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups on the aromatic rings are well tolerated under the optimized conditions. The 2-chloro aromatic ketones obtained by our method could be applied to synthesize the derivatives of 1H-indazole or benzo[d]isoxazole.A palladium-catalyzed ortho-selective CH bond chlorination reaction for the preparation of 2-chloro aromatic ketones was described.

The fluorescence intensity of N,N-dimethyl-4-((2-methylquinolin-6-yl)ethynyl)aniline exhibits an unusual intensification with increasing temperature, by activating more vibrational bands and leading to stronger TICT emissions upon heating in dimethyl sulfoxide. Based on the different temperature dependence at various wavelengths, as shown in the TICT fluorescence spectrum, this dye can be employed to ratiometrically detect temperature.
