In this Minireview, the major achievements in the acylation of arenes and heteroarenes by CH activation with aroyl groups are summarized and discussed. As the products are carbonyl‐containing compounds that are typical products from carbonylation chemistry, the possible inspirations for these reactions are also discussed, as are mechanistic issues and possible problems for carbonylative diaryl ketone synthesis by CH activation.
