- A Key Intermediate in Copper-Mediated Arene Trifluoromethylation, [nBu4N][Cu(Ar)(CF3)3]: Synthesis, Characterization, and C(sp2)?CF3 Reductive Elimination
-
The synthesis, characterization, and C(sp2)?CF3 reductive elimination of stable aryl[tris(trifluoromethyl)]cuprate(III) complexes [nBu4N][Cu(Ar)(CF3)3] are described. Mechanistic investigations, including kinetic studies, studies of the effect of temperature, solvent, and the para substituent of the aryl group, as well as DFT calculations, suggest that the C(sp2)?CF3 reductive elimination proceeds through a concerted carbon–carbon bond-forming pathway.

- Borazine-CF3? Adducts for Rapid, Room Temperature, and Broad Scope Trifluoromethylation
-
A fluoroform-derived borazine CF3? transfer reagent is used to effect rapid nucleophilic reactions in the absence of additives, within minutes at 25 °C. Inorganic electrophiles spanning seven groups of the periodic table can be trifluoromethylated in high yield, including transition metals used for catalytic trifluoromethylation. Organic electrophiles included (hetero)arenes, enabling C?H and C?X trifluoromethylation reactions. Mechanistic analysis supports a dissociative mechanism for CF3? transfer, and cation modification afforded a reagent with enhanced stability.

- Selective mono-and diamination of polyfluorinated benzenes and pyridines with liquid ammonia
-
Amination of pentafluoropyridine, 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoropyridine, 4-chlorotetrafluoropyridine, 3,5-dichlorotrifluoropyridine, octafluorotoluene, α,α,α,2,3,5,6-heptafluorotoluene, decafluoro-m-xylene, decafluorobiphenyl, hexafluorobenzene, and pentafluorobenzene with liquid ammonia was investigated. Bis-aminodefluorination temperatures for the majority of substrates were shown to exceed significantly the corresponding temperatures of monoaminodefluorination. The optimal conditions for selective preparation of mono-and diaminopolyfluoro(het)arenes were elucidated. An efficient method for isolation of particular polyfluorophenylenediamines from product mixtures formed in nonselective reactions of pentafluorobenzene and hexafluorobenzene with aqueous ammonia based on complexation with a crown ether is proposed.

- FLUORINATIONS WITH COMPLEX METAL FLUORIDES. PART 9. FLUORINATIONS OF TOLUENE AND XYLENE DERIVATIVES BY MEANS OF CAESIUM TETRAFLUOROCOBALTATE(III)
-
Benzotrifluoride at 320 deg C afforded some m-fluorobenzotrifluoride and octafluorotoluene (III), together with perfluoromethylcyclohexane (I), and also traces of 2H-heptafluorotoluene and 1-trifluoromethylnonafluorocyclohex-1-ene.Toluene itself gave (difluoromethyl)benzene, fluoro- and difluoro-methylpentafluorobenzene, difluoromethylundecafluorocyclohexane and (I); also traces of di- and tri-fluoromethylnonafluorocyclohex-1-ene: no benzotrifluoride or (III) were detected. 1,3-Bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene at 420 deg C gave 4,5,6-trifluoro-1,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene, decafluoro-1,3-dimethylbenzene, and perfluoro-1,3-dimethylcyclohexane.Para-xylene at 350 deg C afforded 1,4-bis(difluoromethyl)tetrafluorobenzene, 1-difluoromethyl-4-trifluoromethyltetrafluorobenzene, decafluoro-1,4-dimethylbenzene (XIX), and perfluoro-1,4-dimethylcyclohexane (XVIII).Defluorination occurred to a significant extent on passage of the saturated cyclic fluorocarbons (I) and (XVIII) over the fully spent fluorinating agent (presumably caesium trifluorocobaltate) at ca. 400 deg C; the fluorocarbon arenes, (III) and (XIX) respectively, were obtained.
