The functionalization of internal olefins has been a challenging task in organic synthesis. Efficient CuII-catalyzed trifluoromethylation of internal olefins, that is, α-oxoketene dithioacetals, has been achieved by using Cu(OH)2 as a catalyst and TMSCF3 as a trifluoromethylating reagent. The push-pull effect from the polarized olefin substrates facilitates the internal olefinic C-H trifluoromethylation. Cyclic and acyclic dithioalkyl α-oxoketene acetals were used as the substrates and various substituents were tolerated. The internal olefinic C-H bond cleavage was not involved in the rate-determining step, and a mechanism that involves radicals is proposed based on a TEMPO-quenching experiment of the trifluoromethylation reaction. Further derivatization of the resultant CF 3 olefins led to multifunctionalized tetrasubstituted CF3 olefins and trifluoromethylated N-heterocycles.

Iron-catalyzed alkylation of internal olefins, that is, α-oxo ketene dithioacetals, was successfully realized by using styrenes as the alkylating reagents. Highly functionalized tetrasubstituted olefins were prepared in moderate to high yields. the Partner Organisations 2014.
