The first transition-metal-free method for direct CÀH trifluoromethylation of imidazo[1,2a]pyridine derivatives with readily available Ruppert-Prakash reagent TMSCF 3 under mild conditions was described. Moreover, this method could be applied to direct CÀH perfluoroalkylation of imidazopyridines, affording a series of novel perfluoroalkylated products in moderate to good yields. Notable advantages of this protocol include easy operation, high-efficiency and wide substrate scope.
An efficient nickel-catalyzed C-H trifluoromethylation for the synthesis of trifluoromethylated free anilines using Togni's reagent has been developed. This approach exhibits a good functional group tolerance, good regioselectivity, and chemoselectivity under mild conditions. The newly developed economical one-step method is a better alternative to synthesize trifluoromethylated free anilines.
An efficient CuI-catalyzed fluorodesulfurization for the synthesis of monofluoromethyl aryl ethers using DAST at room temperature has been developed. This approach exhibits a good functional group tolerance, a broad substrate scope, and a high synthesis efficiency.
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.
