The palladium-catalyzed skeletal rearrangement of 3-arylcyclobutanones into 1-indanones is reported. A Pd(0)/IMes catalyst allows for the cleavage C(carbonyl)–C(sp3) and C(sp2)–H bonds to result in rearrangement, neither an extra reactive functional group nor a directing required promote reaction. Deuterium-labeling experiments indicate that C–C bond initially activated subsequent C–H activation involved rate-determining step.
