Addition of CFCl3 to aromatic aldehydes under ultrasonic irradiation

Reductive addition of CFCl3 to aromatic aldehydes under the influence of activated aluminum powder and ultrasonic irradiation produced chlorofluoro carbinols in reasonable to excellent yields. Georg Thieme Verlag Sttugart.

Addition of CFCl3 to aromatic aldehydes via in situ Grignard reaction

Synthetic modification of trichlorofluoromethane (CFCl3) to non-volatile and useful fluorinated precursors is a cost-effective and an environmentally benign strategy for the safe consumption/destruction of the ozone depleting potential of the r

Direct electroreduction or use of an electrogenerated base : Two ways for the coupling of polyhalogenated compounds with aldehydes or ketones

The electrochemical coupling of polyhalogenated compounds with carbonyl compounds is achieved in two ways. A carbanion RX(n)- is generated either by the direct electroreduction of RX(n)Cl or by deprotonation of RX(n)H. In this latter case the base Ph- is electrogenerated by reduction of iodobenzene. All electrolysis were carried out in an undivided cell fitted with a cadmium-coated cathode and an aluminium or magnesium sacrificial anode.
