Difluoro- and trifluoro diazoalkanes-complementary approaches in batch and flow and their application in cycloaddition reactions

Herein we report on applications of fluorinated diazoalkanes in cycloaddition reactions, with the emphasis on studying subtle differences between diverse fluorinated diazo compounds. These differences led to two major synthetic protocols in batch and flow that allow the safe and scalable synthesis of fluoroalkyl-, sulfone-substituted pyrazolines.

The epoxy-Ramberg-Baecklund reaction (ERBR): A sulfone-based method for the synthesis of allylic alcohols

The epoxy-Ramberg-Baecklund reaction (ERBR) is outlined, in which α,β-epoxy sulfones are converted into a range of mono-, di- and tri-substituted allylic alcohols, on treatment with base. Modification of this method enabled the preparation of enantio-enriched allylic alcohols following the diastereoselective epoxidation of enantio-enriched vinyl sulfones that were accessed efficiently from the chiral pool. The scope, optimisation and limitations of the ERBR as a method for the preparation of allylic alcohols are discussed. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2006.

The Epoxy-Ramberg-Backlund reaction: A new route to allylic alcohols

A new variant of the Ramberg-Backlund reaction is described, the epoxy-Ramberg-Backlund reaction (ERBR), in which α,β-epoxysulfones, on treatment with base, are converted into a range of mono-, di- and tri-substituted allylic alcohols. The scope and limitations of the ERBR are discussed.
