An easy access to 5-fluoropyridazines by a [2 + 1]/[3 + 2]-cycloaddition sequence between terminal alkynes, a difluorocarbene, and a diazo compound is reported. This approach does not necessitate the isolation of any intermediates, and a wide range of novel 5-fluoropyridazines was synthesized from readily available starting materials. Additionally, these compounds were used as a platform to access novel and highly diversified pyridazines.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
