Synthesis of tetrafluoroethyl- and tetrafluoroethylene-containing amines by the reaction of silanes with enamines under acidic conditions

Synthesis of tetrafluoroethylene- and tetrafluoroethyl-containing azides and their 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition as synthetic application

Tetrafluoroethylene-containing azides are accessed in two steps (one pot) from tetrafluoroalkyl bromides by metalation and reaction with electrophilic azides. Subsequent copper(i)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition afforded N-tetrafluoroethyl and N-tetrafluoroethylene 4-substituted 1,2,3-triazoles. In addition, the protocol for the synthesis of 4,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles is presented.

Nucleophilic Tetrafluoroethylation Employing in Situ Formed Organomagnesium Reagents

Tetrafluoroalkyl bromides are metalated with equimolar iPrMgCl·LiCl (Turbo Grignard) to form organomagnesium compounds which are stable at low temperatures and react with various electrophiles (aldehydes, ketones, CO₂, cyclic sulfate and sulfamidate, N-sulfonylimines, nitrone, chlorophosphate, nonaflyl azide) to afford novel functionalized tetrafluoroethylene-containing products. Ease of operation, excellent selectivity, high nucleophilicity, and enhanced stability of the reactive species together with a broad substrate scope comprise a highly attractive nucleophilic tetrafluoroethylation protocol affording unique synthetic building blocks.
