[a] Reaction conditions A: 1 a (0.3 mmol), 2 a–z (2.0 equiv), [Ru(tBuCN)6](BF4)2 (3 mol %), K2CO3 (2.0 equiv), KOC(CF3)3 (1.0 equiv) and tBuCN (8.0 equiv) stirred under Ar in a closed vessel at 140 °C for 16 h. Yields are of pure, isolated products. [b] [Ru(tBuCN)6](BF4)2 (6 mol %). [c] Isolated as the corresponding methyl ester after derivatization with MeI. [d] 3.0 equiv of H2O were added. [e] Yield evaluated by 1H NMR with 1,3‐dinitrobenzene as internal standard. [f] Reaction time 3 h. [g] Reaction time 1 h.
