Transition-Metal Complex Catalyzed Polyfluoroalkylation. A Facile Synthesis of Fluorine-Containing Oxiranes and Enynes

Article abstract of DOI:10.1246/cl.1987.521

Palladium-catalyzed reaction of polyfluoroalkyl halides with allylic alcohols in the presence of potassium carbonate gives polyfluoroalkylmethyl-substituted oxiranes directly.Perfluoroalkyl-substituted enynes can be also prepared from perfluoroalkyl iodides and terminal alkynes under similar conditions.
