Abstract

A new approach for one step olefination of benzaldehydes into hydroxy functionalized OPVs is achieved through the first domino Knoevenagel- decarboxylation-Heck sequence using a single catalyst system. The methodology also led to new oxygen based OPV scaffolds capable of selective and visible fluoride recognition in organic or aqueous medium.
