The ene reaction of 1,1,1-trifluoroacetone with various olefinic compounds proceeded in the presence of aluminum chloride at low temperature to give allylmethyl (trifluoromethyl)carbinols.Olefinic compounds with a terminal vinyl group reacted smoothly, but some olefins with an inner double bond did not react at all.Trifluoroacetone was also found to undergo a Friedel-Crafts type reaction with aromatic compounds.Keywords - trifluoroacetone; trifluoromethyl; ene reaction; homoallyl alcohol; trifluoromethylcarbinol; Lewis acid catalyzed reaction; aluminum chloride; allyl; olefin; diethyl aluminum chloride
