Fluoroalkylation and Fluoroakoxylation. Magnesium Single-Electron-Transfer Induced Synthesis of 2-Fluoroalkylpyrroles
An SRN1 reaction, initiated by single electron transfer from magnesium, provides an efficient method for the regioselective synthesis of 2-fluoroalkylpyrroles from pyrrole and the corresponding fluoroalkyl iodides.
