	abstract = {<p>A metal-free oxidative rearrangement was explored for the synthesis of 1,2-diaryl diketones by utilizing alpha, beta-unsaturated diaryl ketones and I-2/TBHP in good to high yields. The reaction proceeds via oxidative aryl migration, followed by C-C bond cleavage. A simple and high-yielding protocol was developed for the synthesis of a wide range of 1,2-diaryl diketones, which are the backbone for a variety of medicinally important molecules.</p>
