3,3,3-Trihalogeno-1-nitropropenes C(Hal3)CH=CH(NO2) (Hal = F, Cl, Br) in reaction with arenes in the superacid CF3SO3H (TfOH) at room temperature in 1 h afford 3,3,3-trihalogeno-1,2-diarylpropan-1-one oximes C(Hal3)CH(Ar)-C(Ar)=NOH (CHal3-oximes) in yields of 23-99%. Such CHal3-oximes having one ortho-substituent in the aryl ring exist as atropoisomers in solutions at room temperature. Several cationic intermediates of this reaction were studied by means of NMR and DFT calculations, which proves the detailed reaction mechanism of the formation of CHal3-oximes in TfOH. CHal3-oximes (for Hal = Cl, Br) with DBU in DMF at microwave or thermal activation are cyclized into 5-halogeno-3,4-diarylisoxazoles in yields of 37-59%. CHal3-oximes under the conditions of Beckmann rearrangement with PCl5 in benzene at room temperature in 24 h are turned at first into imidoyl chlorides (yields of 94-96%), which undergo transformation into the corresponding benzamides PhCONHCHPh(CHal3) on silica gel (yields of 46-47%).

Improved synthetic conditions allow preparation of TMSCCl3 in good yield (70 %) and excellent purity. Compounds of the type NBu4X [X=Ph3SiF2 (TBAT), F (tetrabutylammonium fluoride, TBAF), OAc, Cl and Br] act as catalytic promoters for 1,4-additions to a range of cyclic and acyclic nitroalkenes, in THF at 0-25 °C, typically in moderate to excellent yields (37-95 %). TBAT is the most effective promoter and bromide the least effective. Multinuclear NMR studies (1H, 19F, 13C and 29Si) under anaerobic conditions indicate that addition of TMSCCl3 to TBAT (both 0.13 M) at -20 °C, in the absence of nitroalkene, leads immediately to mixtures of Me3SiF, Ph3SiF and NBu4CCl3. The latter is stable to at least 0 °C and does not add nitroalkene from -20 to 0 °C, even after extended periods. Nitroalkene, in the presence of TMSCCl3 (both 0.13 M at -20 °C), when treated with TBAT, leads to immediate formation of the 1,4-addition product, suggesting the reaction proceeds via a transient [Me 3Si(alkene)CCl3] species, in which (alkene) indicates an Si O coordinated nitroalkene. The anaerobic catalytic chain is propagated through the kinetic nitronate anion resulting from 1,4 CCl3 - addition to the nitroalkene. This is demonstrated by the fact that isolated NBu4[CH2=NO2] is an efficient promoter. Use of H2C=CH(CH2)2CH=CHNO 2 in air affords radical-derived bicyclic products arising from aerobic oxidation. Understanding TMSCCl3: The synthesis and reactivity of TMSCCl3 has been investigated. The mechanism of 1,4-CCl3 addition to nitroalkenes begins with nitroalkene coordination, followed by the attack of an external fluoride ion, and does not involve the formation of NBu4[Me3SiFCCl3] (see figure).
