These complexes were used as catalysts for the addition of sodium tetraphenylborate to aromatic ketones and corresponding tertiary alcohols were obtained in good yields.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRhodium ComplexNHC LigandArylation ReactionAlcoholKetoneArticle89112562257110.3987/COM-14-130922-s2.0-84912052168Q4WOS:000348009400004Q3
