- Stereoselective Synthesis of Z Fluoroalkenes through Copper-Catalyzed Hydrodefluorination of gem-Difluoroalkenes with Water
-
A copper catalytic system was established for the stereoselective hydrodefluorination of gem-difluoroalkenes through C?F activation to synthesize various Z fluoroalkenes. H2O is used as the hydrogen source for the fluorine acceptor moiety. This mild catalytic system shows good-functional group compatibility, accepting a range of carbonyls as precursors to the gem-difluoroalkenes, including aliphatic, aromatic, and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and even ketones. It serves as a powerful synthetic method for the late-stage modification of complex compounds.

- 1-tert-Butyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl fluoromethyl sulfone (TBTSO2CH2F): A versatile fluoromethylidene synthon and its use in the synthesis of monofluorinated alkenes via JuliaKocienski olefination
-
1-tert-Butyl-IH-tetrazol-5-yl fluoromethyl sulfone (TBTSO 2CI-12F) has been developed as a new and efficient fluoromethylidene synthon for the synthesis of both terminal and internal monofluoroalkenes via JuliaKocienski olefination reaction. The base-mediated reaction between TBTSO2CI-12F and carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) provided terminal monofluoroalkenes in good yields with moderate E!Z selectivity. The dominance of E- or Z-fluoroalkenes could be controlled by selection of proper reaction solvent and temperature. TBTSO 2CI-12F reagent was also found to be readily CL-alkylated, acylated, and phenylsulfonylated to give corresponding CL-functionalized fluorosulfones, which could be used in the synthesis of alkyl-, acyl-, and phenylsulfonyl-substituted internal monofluoroalkenes via JuliaKocienski olefination reactions.
