Photoredox-Catalyzed Stereoselective Conversion of Alkynes into Tetrasubstituted Trifluoromethylated Alkenes

A regio- and stereoselective synthesis of trifluoromethylated alkenes bearing four different substituents has been developed. Stereocontrolled sulfonyloxytrifluoromethylation of unsymmetric internal alkynes with an electrophilic CF3 reagent, namely the triflate salt of the Yagupol'skii-Umemoto reagent, in the presence of an Ir photoredox catalyst under visible-light irradiation afforded trifluoromethylalkenyl triflates with well-predictable stereochemistry resulting from anti addition of the trifluoromethyl and triflate groups. Subsequent palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings led to tetrasubstituted trifluoromethylated alkenes in a highly stereoselective manner. The present method is the first example of a facile one-pot synthesis of tetrasubstituted trifluoromethylated alkenes from simple alkynes.

Sunlight-driven trifluoromethylation of olefinic substrates by photoredox catalysis: A green organic process

The principles and utility of photoredox catalysis in organic synthesis are described. After a brief description of the features of the two types of catalytic photoredox processes following the reductive quenching cycle (RQC) and the oxidative quenching cycle (OQC), the discussion is focused on organic transformations based on OQC, in particular the trifluoromethylation of olefinic substrates with electrophilic trifluoromethylating reagents furnishing solvolytic addition products and substitution products. It is concluded that catalytic photoredox systems are green from the point of view of harmfulness, safety, and energy source (visible light, including sunlight). Future prospects of photoredox catalysis will be also discussed.

Direct C-H trifluoromethylation of di- and trisubstituted alkenes by photoredox catalysis

Background: Trifluoromethylated alkene scaffolds are known as useful structural motifs in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals as well as functional organic materials. But reported synthetic methods usually require multiple synthetic steps and/or exhibit lim
