An evaluation of a range of aryl, alkyl and vinyl esters as prospective C(1)-ammonium enolate precursors in enantioselective Michael addition-lactonisation processes with (E)-trifluoromethylenones using isothiourea catalysis is reported. Electron deficient aryl esters are required for reactivity, with 2,4,6-trichlorophenyl esters providing optimal product yields. Catalyst screening showed that tetramisole was the most effective isothiourea catalyst, giving the desired dihydropyranone product in excellent yield and stereoselectivity (up to 90 : 10 dr and 98 : 2 er). The scope and limitations of this process have been evaluated, with a range of diester products being generated after ring-opening with MeOH to give stereodefined dihydropyranones with excellent stereocontrol (10 examples, typically ~90 : 10 dr and >95 : 5 er).

A novel dehydrogenation reaction of perfluoroalkyl ketones by the oxoammonium salt 4-acetylamino-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxoammonium tetrafluoroborate (4-NHAc-TEMPO+BF4-, Bobbitt's salt, 1) is described. The reaction proceeds under mildly basic conditions and appears to be unique to perfluoroalkyl ketones. A proposed mechanism for this unusual transformation is given. The byproduct of the reaction, 4-acetylamino-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (1a), can easily be recovered and used to regenerate the oxoammonium salt. The dehydrogenation of perfluoroalkyl ketones by using an oxoammonium salt is reported. The reaction proceeds under mildly basic conditions and affords α,β-unsaturated products in fair to excellent yields. The reaction likely proceeds through a two-step sequence. The spent oxidant can easily be recovered and used to regenerate the oxoammonium salt. Copyright

The first catalytic enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indoles with α,β-unsaturated trifluoromethyl ketones has been accomplished. The reaction was achieved in the presence of the Dy(OTf)3/Pybox complex, producing the desired product
Reaction of α,β-unsaturated trifluoromethyl ketones with cyclic enamines

The reactions of α,β-unsaturated trifluoromethyl ketones containing aromatic and heteroaromatic substituents with 1-morpholinocyclopentene, 1-morpholinocyclohexene, and 1-methyl-4-morpholino-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine were studied. The reactions proceeded stereospecifically to give the corresponding bicyclo[3.2.1]octane, bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane, and azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives.
