Oxidative trifluoromethylation and fluoroolefination of unactivated olefins

Abstract

Fluorine-containing organic compounds are gaining increasing importance in medicinal chemistry. Described herein is a mild and efficient method for the radical addition of olefins with TMSCF3 and TMSCF2R (R = COOEt or CF3) to deliver various α-trifluoromethylated ketones and α-fluoroolefinated ketones.
