An Oxone-mediated oxidative ring-opening reaction was reported for the synthesis of 2-hydroxy-2'-aroyl-1,1'-biaryls by cleaving a carbon-carbon bond of 4,5-disubstituted 9H-fluoren-9-ols. The reaction can be efficiently carried out by heating a mixture of fluoren-9-ols, Oxone, and 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol at 60 degrees C for 4 hours. The proposed persulfate-involved ring-expansion processes were supported by DFT calculations.
