Carbonylative reactions by the using of CO surrogates constitute a facile avenue for the assembly of valuable carbonyl-containing compounds due to the colorless, toxic, flammable, and not easy-handing character of carbon monoxide gas. Recent advances in the carbonylative transformations with TFBen (benzene-1,3,5-triyl triformate) as a safe and convenient CO precursor are systematically summarized and discussed, which can be divided into three parts based on the patterns of the obtained products. This Review focuses on the discussion of the application of TFBen in carbonylative synthesis of various carbonyl-containing compounds.

TFBen (Benzene-1,3,5-triyl triformate)：一种强大而通用的 CO 替代品

由于一氧化碳气体的无色、有毒、易燃和不易处理的特性，使用 CO 替代物进行的羰基化反应构成了组装有价值的含羰基化合物的简便途径。系统总结和讨论了以 TFBen（苯-1,3,5-三甲酸苯酯）作为安全便捷的 CO 前体的羰基化转化的最新进展，根据所得产物的模式可分为三个部分。本综述重点讨论了TFBen在各种含羰基化合物羰基合成中的应用。
