Abstract
Transition metal-catalyzed carbene transfer reactions have a century-old history in organic chemistry and are a primary method for the synthesis of cyclopropanes. Much of the work in this field has focused on the use of diazo compounds and related precursors, which can transfer a carbene fragment to a catalyst with concomitant loss of a stable byproduct. Despite the utility of this approach, there are persistent limitations in the scope of viable carbenes, most notably those lacking stabilizing substituents. By coupling carbene transfer chemistry with two-electron redox cycles, it is possible to expand the available starting materials that can be used as carbene precursors. In this Minireview, we discuss emerging catalytic reductive cyclopropanation reactions using either gem-dihaloalkanes or carbonyl compounds. This strategy is inspired by classic stoichiometric transformations, such as the Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation and the Clemmensen reduction, but instead entails the formation of a catalytically generated transition metal carbene or carbenoid. We also present recent efforts to generate carbenes directly from methylene (CR2H2) groups via a formal 1,1-dehydrogenation. These reactions are currently restricted to substrates containing electron-withdrawing substituents, which serve to facilitate deprotonation and subsequent oxidation of the anion.

Abstract
This review explores the significance of trifluoromethylnitrones in synthesizing fluorine-containing compounds, with a particular focus on trifluoromethylated heterocycles. It explores the versatility of trifluoromethylnitrones, especially in [3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions, highlighting their unique reactivity with various dienophile substrates. Trifluoromethylnitrones are valuable precursors for the rapid synthesis of medicinally important trifluoromethylated heterocycles, including isoxazolidines, dihydroisoxazoles, oxathiazolidines, β-lactams, and aziridines. These heterocycles, in turn, serve as synthons for synthesizing trifluoromethylated lactams and aminoalcohols. Additionally, nitrone chemistry extends to synthesizing trifluoromethylated nucleosides and trifluorinated organoborane heterocycles, demonstrating their versatility. While sharing similarities with trifluorodiazoethane reactivity, trifluoromethylnitrones offer distinct advantages by enabling the synthesis of heterocycles typically inaccessible with trifluorodiazoethane.

Abstract
The ability to tame high-energy intermediates is important for synthetic chemistry, enabling the construction of complex molecules and propelling advances in the field of synthesis. Along these lines, carbenes and carbenoid intermediates are particularly attractive, but often unknown, high-energy intermediates1,2. Classical methods to access metal carbene intermediates exploit two-electron chemistry to form the carbon-metal bond. However, these methods are usually prohibitive because of reagent safety concerns, limiting their broad implementation in synthesis3-6. Mechanistically, an alternative approach to carbene intermediates that could circumvent these pitfalls would involve two single-electron steps: radical addition to metal to forge the initial carbon-metal bond followed by redox-promoted α-elimination to yield the desired metal carbene intermediate. Here we realize this strategy through a metallaphotoredox platform that exploits iron carbene reactivity using readily available chemical feedstocks as radical sources and α-elimination from six classes of previously underexploited leaving groups. These discoveries permit cyclopropanation and σ-bond insertion into N-H, S-H and P-H bonds from abundant and bench-stable carboxylic acids, amino acids and alcohols, thereby providing a general solution to the challenge of carbene-mediated chemical diversification.

Abstract
By tapping into the divergent reactivity of diazocarboxylates under thermal and photocatalytic conditions, we could develop chemodivergent phosphonylation protocols for α-diazocarboxylates with trialkyl phosphites. While the thermal reaction led to N-P bond formation affording phosphonylated hydrazones, the visible light-mediated reaction furnished phosphonylated aryl carboxylates through C-P bond formation. Both reactions are notable for their operational simplicity and mild conditions affording products in good yields without the requirement of a metal, base or photocatalyst.

Abstract
A visible-light-promoted radical gem-difunctionalization of trifluorodiazoethane with RSO2X (X = SeR', I) for the synthesis of α-seleno or α-iodo trifluoroethyl sulfones is described. This atom-economical reaction is external-photocatalyst- and additive-free and uses nontoxic ethyl acetate as the solvent. The resultant products, which incorporate sulfonyl, trifluoromethyl, and iodo or selenyl functional groups onto one carbon atom, can serve as versatile building blocks. A major synthetic application was demonstrated by ATRA reactions with various terminal alkynes.

Abstract
Building molecular complexity from simple feedstocks through precise peripheral and skeletal modifications is central to modern organic synthesis. Nevertheless, a controllable strategy through which both the core skeleton and the periphery of an aromatic heterocycle can be modified with a common substrate remains elusive, despite its potential to maximize structural diversity and applications. Here we report a carbene-initiated chemodivergent molecular editing of indoles that allows both skeletal and peripheral editing by trapping an electrophilic fluoroalkyl carbene generated in situ from fluoroalkyl N-triftosylhydrazones. A variety of fluorine-containing N-heterocyclic scaffolds have been efficiently achieved through tunable chemoselective editing reactions at the skeleton or periphery of indoles, including one-carbon insertion, C3 gem-difluoroolefination, tandem cyclopropanation and N1 gem-difluoroolefination, and cyclopropanation. The power of this chemodivergent molecular editing strategy has been highlighted through the modification of the skeleton or periphery of natural products in a controllable and chemoselective manner. The reaction mechanism and origins of the chemo- and regioselectivity have been probed by both experimental and theoretical methods.

Abstract
We herein first report the homodimerization and tandem diamination of diazo compounds with primary amines catalyzed by the iron(II) phthalocyanine (PcFe(II)), which can construct one C-C bond and two C-N bonds within 20 min in one-pot. Compared to the traditional metal-catalyzed N-H insertion reaction between amines with diazo reagents, the developed reaction almost does not generate the N-H insertion product, but the homodimerization/tandem diamination product. The proposed mechanism studies indicate that primary amines play a crucial role in the homocoupling of diazo compounds via dimerization of iron(III)-acetonitrile radical generated from the reaction between diazoacetonitrile with PcFe(II) coordinated by bis(amines); the β-hydride elimination is involved, and then, the attack of primary amines toward the carbon atoms on the formed C-C bond is followed. Moreover, this novel reaction can be used to effectively prepare substituted 2,3-diaminosuccinonitriles with high yields and even up to >99:1 d.r., encouragingly these products contain both 1,2-diamines and succinonitrile motifs, which are two classes of important organic compounds with significant applications in many yields. This reaction is also suitable for the gram-scale preparation of 2,3-bis(phenylamino)succinonitrile (2a) with a yield of 84%. Therefore, the developed reaction represents a new type of transformation.

Abstract
A safe and efficient method for the in-situ preparation of (diazomethyl)dimethylphosphine oxide - a hereto unexplored diazoalkane reagent - is developed. The method is based on the diazotization of the corresponding P(O)Me2-substituted amine (readily available in multigram quantities) in non-aqueous media. The protocol provides the target product as ca. 1.5 M CHCl3 solution which is stable at -18 °C. The utility of the synthesized diazoalkane is illustrated by its [3+2] cycloaddition with electron-poor alkynes and alkenes providing the corresponding P(O)Me2-substituted pyrazoles and pyrazolines with moderate to good efficiency. In this view, the title compound represents and an important extension of medicinally relevant phosphine oxide reagents.

Abstract
Trifluoromethyl cationic carbyne (CF3 C+ :) possessing dual carbene-carbocation behavior emulated as trifluoromethyl metal-carbynoid (CF3 C+ =M) has not been explored yet, and its reaction characteristics are unknown. Herein, a novel α-diazotrifluoroethyl sulfonium salt was prepared and used in Rh-catalyzed three-component [2+1+2] cycloadditions for the first time with commercially available N-fused heteroarenes and nitriles, yielding a series of imidazo[1,5-a] N-heterocycles that are of interest in medicinal chemistry, in which the insertion of trifluoromethyl Rh-carbynoid (CF3 C+ =Rh) into C=N bonds of N-fused heteroarenes was involved. This strategy demonstrates synthetic applications in late-stage modification of pharmaceuticals, construction of CD3 -containing N-heterocycles, gram-scale experiments, and synthesis of phosphodiesterase 10A inhibitor analog. These highly valuable and modifiable imidazo[1,5-a] N-heterocycles exhibit good antitumor activity in vitro, thus demonstrating their potential applications in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
A mild and metal-free strategy for the construction of trifluoromethylated pyrazolo[4,3-b]indoles through the reaction of N-substituted 3-nitroindoles with trifluorodiazoethane is reported. This operationally simple transformation involves a [3 + 2] cycloaddition of trifluorodiazoethane with 3-nitroindole, followed by the elimination of the nitro group to furnish pyrazole-fused indoles. The synthetic utility of this method is further demonstrated by applying it to other heterocycles, such as 3-nitrobenzothiophene and 2-nitrobenzofuran.

Herein, we disclose a direct and powerful strategy for the synthesis of highly valuable α-trifluoromethylamine and N-trifluoroethylamine derivatives from a visible-light-promoted C,N-selective heteroarylation of N-trifluoroethyl hydroxylamine reagents with quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones under ambient conditions. The chemoselectivity of the process (trifluoroalkylation or N-trifluoroethylamination) can easily be dictated and modulated by a selection of N-trifluoroethyl hydroxylamine substrates. The key to success is the protecting group on the N atom of hydroxylamine reagents, which can control the process of 1,2-H shift of the in situ-generated N-trifluoroethyl radical. Remarkable features of this method include mild conditions, easy operation, high selectivity, and excellent functional group tolerability. More importantly, the trifluoroalkylated products can be readily derivatized into other interesting imidazo-fused heterocycles that would be of great potential for the exploitation of pharmaceutically relevant molecules.

Abstract
Metalloradical catalysis (MRC) exploits the metal-centred radicals present in open-shell metal complexes as one-electron catalysts for the generation of metal-stabilized organic radicals-key intermediates that control subsequent one-electron homolytic reactions. Cobalt(II) complexes of porphyrins, as stable 15e-metalloradicals with a well-defined low-spin d7 configuration, have dominated the ongoing development of MRC. Here, to broaden MRC beyond the use of Co(II)-based metalloradical catalysts, we describe systematic studies that establish the operation of Fe(III)-based MRC and demonstrate an initial application for asymmetric radical transformations. Specifically, we report that five-coordinate iron(III) complexes of porphyrins with an axial ligand, which represent another family of stable 15e-metalloradicals with a d5 configuration, are potent metalloradical catalysts for olefin cyclopropanation with different classes of diazo compounds via a stepwise radical mechanism. This work lays a foundation and mechanistic blueprint for future exploration of Fe(III)-based MRC towards the discovery of diverse stereoselective radical reactions.

Abstract
Although 2-furyl-carbenes (furfurylidenes) are prone to instantaneous electrocyclic ring opening, chiral [BiRh]-paddlewheel complexes empowered by London dispersion allow (trifluoromethyl)furfurylidene metal complexes to be generated from a bench-stable triftosylhydrazone precursor. These reactive intermediates engage in asymmetric [2+1] cycloadditions and hence open entry into valuable trifluoromethylated cyclopropane or -cyclopropene derivatives in optically active form, which are important building blocks for medicinal chemistry but difficult to make otherwise.

Abstract
Herein, we report a rare example of trapping arynes using in situ generated aryltrifluoromethylnitrone to access an important class of trifluoromethylated benzoxazolines. This three-component strategy involves a nitrone formation/[3 + 2] cycloaddition/thermal rearrangement cascade and furnishes trifluoromethylated benzoxazolines in high yields. The scope of the reaction is quite broad with respect to aryltrifluorodiazoethanes, nitrosoarenes, and arynes. The proposed reaction pathway is supported through the isolation and characterization of the key reaction intermediates phenyltrifluoromethylnitrone and benzisoxazoline.

Abstract
A Ag-catalyzed three-component annulation protocol, which uses o-alkynylaryl aldehydes, amines, and trifluorodiazoethane or diazoacetonitrile, to forge a new class of trifluoromethyl- and cyano-functionalized benzo[d]azepine is presented in this Letter. The key transformations involved in this reaction are the transient formation of the isoquinolinium intermediate and the subsequent ring-expansive addition of in situ-formed silver trifluorodiazoethylide to this intermediate. The practicality of this protocol is illustrated by realizing access to a wide range of densely functionalized benzo[d]azepines.

Abstract
Reported in this Letter is a silver-catalyzed reaction between o-alkynylaryl aldehydes and trifluorodiazoethane that enables an expedient synthesis of trifluoromethylated benzo[d]oxepines. The reaction works through a silver-promoted 6-endo-dig cyclization of o-alkynylbenzaldehydes for the generation of an isochromenylium intermediate, which upon a ring-expansive addition of trifluorodiazoethane delivers a novel class of trifluoromethylated benzoxepine frameworks. This strategy was applied to the synthesis of phosphonylated benzo[d]oxepines using the Seyferth-Gilbert reagent.

Abstract
Trifluoromethyl-bearing 5-membered rings are prevalent in bioactive molecules, but modular approaches to these compounds by functionalization of robust C(sp3 )-H bonds in a direct and selective manner are extremely challenging. Herein we report the rhodium-catalyzed α-CF3 -α-alkyl carbene insertion into C(sp3 )-H bonds of a broad range of substrates to access 7 types of CF3 -bearing saturated 5-membered carbo- and heterocycles. The reaction is particularly effective for benzylic C-H insertion exerting good site-, diastereo- and enantiocontrol, and applicable to the synthesis of chiral CF3 analogues of bioactive molecules. Ruthenium α-CF3 -α-alkyl carbene complexes underwent stoichiometric reactions to give C-H insertion products, lending evidence for the involvement of metal α-CF3 -α-alkyl carbene species in the catalytic cycle. DFT calculations revealed that the π⋅⋅⋅π attraction and intra-carbene C-H⋅⋅⋅F hydrogen bond elucidate the origin of selectivity of the benzylic C-H insertion reactions.

Abstract
Herein, we report a novel strategy for the synthesis of chiral difluoroalkyl-substituted cyclopropanes through enantioselective [2 + 1] cyclopropanation of alkenes and difluoroalkyl-substituted carbenes under rhodium catalysis, wherein the newly designed α, α-difluoro-β-carbonyl ketone N-triftosylhydrazones are used as the difluoroalkyl-substituted carbenes precursors. This approach represents the first asymmetric cyclopropanation of alkenes with difluoroalkyl carbenes, featuring high yield, high enantioselectivity, and broad substrate scope. Gram-scale synthesis and further interconversion of diverse functional groups demonstrate the usefulness of this protocol in the preparation of diverse functionalized chiral difluoroalkyl-substituted cyclopropanes.

Abstract
Multi-component reaction of higher degree ultilization of diazo molecules for polyene formation is highly intriuging but still underexplored. We present herein an unprecedented coupling of 2,2,2-trifluorodiazoethane and aryl alkynes mediated by iodine under visible light. The multi-component reaction involving two diazo units and two alkyne units provides a straightforward and step-economic access to bistrifluoromethylated 1,3,5-trienes in high stereoselectivity by creation of three C═C bonds in a single step under mild conditions.

Abstract
The synthesis of two series of monocyclic and bicyclic trifluoromethylated 4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-6(1H)-one derivatives based on (3+3)-annulation of methyl esters derived from natural α-amino acids with in situ generated trifluoroacetonitrile imines has been described. The devised protocol is characterized by a wide scope, easily accessible substrates, remarkable functional group tolerance, and high chemical yield. In reactions with chiral starting materials, no racemization at the stereogenic centers was observed and the respective enantiomerically pure products were obtained. Selected functional group interconversions carried out under catalytic hydrogenation and mild PTC oxidation conditions were also demonstrated.

Abstract
A Lewis acid mediated conjugate addition of isocyanides to β-hydroxy-α-diazo carbonyls has been developed for the first time. The reaction realizes the efficient construction of quaternary carbon centers and provides a novel and efficient strategy for the synthesis of β-carboxamido-α-diazo carbonyls that would be otherwise difficult to form in a single step. Further applications, including synthesis of methylenecyclohexane, spiro-β-lactam, and nitrogen-bridged tricyclic β-lactam, demonstrated the tremendous potential of the coupling reaction.

Abstract
Herein, we disclose the first report on the generation of cyanonitrone in situ from diazoacetonitrile and nitrosoarene, and its subsequent [3+2] cycloaddition with oxabicyclic alkenes to access fused tricyclic cyanoisoxazolidines. Further, this methodology could be extended to access fused tricyclic trifluoromethylated and phosphonylated isoxazolidines. Surprisingly, the reductive ring-opening of cyanoisoxazolidines was followed by a spontaneous lactonization to produce fused tricyclic amino lactones. Moreover, the N-O bond of the obtained tricyclic trifluoromethylated isoxazolidines could be cleaved to obtain 1,3-amino alcohols.

Abstract
Fused polycyclic pyrazoles are an important class of heterocyclic compounds; thus, the development of efficient methods for their preparation becomes highly urgent. Herein, we reported an efficient method for the synthesis of trifluoromethylated fused tricyclic pyrazoles via intramolecular cyclization of cyclic ketone-derived amines. Mechanistic studies provide evidence for the in situ generation of trifluoromethylated β-diazo ketones as intermediates via diazotization with the use of tert-butyl nitrite. The synthetic utility of this method is highlighted by scale-up synthesis and the derivatization of the obtained fused tricyclic pyrazole products.

Abstract
We report here "sandwich" diimine-copper(I) catalysts for C(sp3 )-H bond functionalization. Reactions of alkanes and ethers with trimethylsilyldiazomethane, ethyl diazoacetate, and trifluoromethyl-diazomethane have been demonstrated. We also report C(sp3 )-H bond methylation, benzylation, and diphenylmethylation by diazomethane, aryldiazomethanes, and diphenyldiazomethane. These reactions are rare examples of base-metal catalyzed, intermolecular C(sp3 )-H functionalizations by employing unactivated diazo compounds. Electrophilicity and unique steric environment of "sandwich"-copper catalysts are likely reasons for their catalytic efficiency.

Abstract
The present work documents electrophilic substitution of azaarenes, mainly isoquinolines, with hypervalent iodine diazo reagents (HIDR) followed by formal [3+2]-dipolar cycloaddition in a tandem fashion. Other azaarenes viz. pyridines and phenanthridines too could be successfully used in the reaction. The methodology capitalizes on the umpolung nature of α-aryliodonio diazo compounds for installing a nucleophile, i.e. azaarene, at their α-position. Subsequent ylide formation and intramolecular 1,5-cyclization furnished 4,3-fused 1,2,4-triazolyl-azaarenes in good yields. The reaction is notable for its mild conditions, operational simplicity and fairly general scope.

Abstract
ConspectusOver recent decades, N-sulfonylhydrazones have attracted significant attention in academic and industrial contexts owing to their ease of preparation, versatile reactivity, high stability, and practicality. In particular, the use of N-sulfonylhydrazones as precursors for diazo compounds has paved the way for innovative and original organic reactions that are otherwise difficult to achieve. Three key developments are noteworthy in the history of N-sulfonylhydrazone chemistry: (1) Bamford and Stevens initially disclosed the application of N-tosylhydrazones as a diazo source in 1952; (2) Aggarwal and co-workers investigated N-tosylhydrazone salts as diazo precursors for sulfur ylide-mediated asymmetric epoxidation and aziridination in 2001; and (3) Barluenga, Valdés and co-workers first reported Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with N-tosylhydrazones in 2007, thus introducing the direct use of N-tosylhydrazones in carbene transfer reactions. In the past 2 decades, the synthetic exploration of N-sulfonylhydrazones in carbene chemistry has increased remarkably. N-Tosylhydrazones are the most commonly used N-sulfonylhydrazones, but they are not easy to decompose and normally need relatively high temperatures (e.g., 90-110 °C). Temperature, as a key reaction parameter, has a significant influence on the selectivity and scope of organic reactions, especially the enantioselectivity. Aggarwal and co-workers have addressed this issue by using N-tosylhydrazone salts and achieved a limited number of asymmetric organic reactions, but the method is greatly limited because the salts must be freshly prepared or stored in the dark at -20 °C prior to use. Hence, easily decomposable N-sulfonylhydrazones, especially those capable of decomposing at low temperature, should open up new opportunities for the development of N-sulfonylhydrazone chemistry. Since 2014, our group has worked toward this goal and eventually identified N-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzenesulfonylhydrazone (i.e., N-triftosylhydrazone) as an efficient diazo surrogate that can decompose at temperatures as low as -40 °C. This allowed us to carry out a range of challenging synthetic transformations and to broaden the applications of some known reactions of great relevance.In this Account, we report our achievements in the application of N-triftosylhydrazones in carbene chemistry. On the basis of the reaction types, such applications can be categorized as (i) C(sp3)-H insertion reactions, (ii) defluorinative reactions of fluoroalkyl N-triftosylhydrazones, (iii) cycloaddition reactions with alkenes and alkynes, and (iv) asymmetric reactions. Additional applications in Doyle-Kirmse rearrangements and cross-coupling with isocyanides (ours) and benzyl chlorides (from the group of Xia) are also summarized in this Account concerning miscellaneous reactions. In terms of reaction efficiency, selectivity, and functional group tolerance, N-triftosylhydrazones are generally superior to traditional N-tosylhydrazones because of their easy decomposition. Mechanistic investigations by theoretical calculations provide insights into both the reaction mechanisms and the origin of selectivity. We hope that this Account will inspire broad interest and promote new progress in the synthetic exploration of easily decomposable N-sulfonylhydrazones.

Zhou Y, Gao CF, Ma H, Nie J, Ma JA, Zhang FG. Quadruple Functionalized Pyrazole Pharmacophores via One-pot Regioselective [3 + 2] Cycloaddition of Fluorinated Nitrile Imines and Dicyanoalkenes. Chem Asian J 2022; 17:e202200436. [PMID: 35603760 DOI: 10.1002/asia.202200436] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Revised: 05/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
Here we present a quadruple functionalization approach for the modular construction of fully substituted N 1 -aryl 3-di/trifluoro-methyl-4/5-cyanopyrazole pharmacophores from readily available hydrazonyl chlorides and dicyanoalkenes. The realization of this [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction hinges upon the employment of N -aryl di/trifluoromethyl nitrile imines as the 1,3-dipoles to bypass external synthetic steps and dicyanoalkenes as the dipolarophiles to tune the regioselectivity. This one-pot strategy offers access to a divergent library of cyano analogues of prevalent 3-di/trifluoromethyl pyrazole pharmacophores, among which several compounds have shown potent inhibitory activity towards cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) compared with marketed drug Celecoxib.

Abstract
The direct gem-difluoroalkenylation of X-H bonds represents the most straightforward approach to access heteroatomic gem-difluoroalkenes that, as the isostere of the carbonyl group, have great potency in drug discovery. However, the construction of tetrasubstituted heteroatomic gem-difluoroalkenes by this strategy is still an unsolved problem. Here, we report the first direct X-H bond gem-difluoroalkenylation of amines and alcohols with trifluoromethyl ketone N-triftosylhydrazones under silver (for (hetero)aryl hydrazones) or rhodium (for alkyl hydrazones), thereby providing a most powerful method for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted heteroatomic gem-difluoroalkenes. This method features a broad substrate scope, high product yield, excellent functional group tolerance, and operational simplicity (open air conditions). Moreover, the site-specific replacement of the carbonyl group with a gem-difluorovinyl ether bioisostere in drug Trimebutine and the post-modification of bioactive molecules demonstrates potential use in medicinal research. Finally, the reaction mechanism was investigated by combining experiments and DFT calculations, and disclosed that the key step of HF elimination occurred via five-membered ring transition state, and the difference in the electrophilicity of Ag- and Rh-carbenes as well as the multiple intermolecular interactions rendered the effectiveness of Rh catalyst selectively for alkyl hydrazones.

Abstract
![]()
A general approach
for preparation of two types of polyfunctionalized
3-trifluoromethylpyrazoles is reported. The protocol comprises (3
+ 2)-cycloaddition of the in situ generated trifluoroacetonitrile
imines with enones leading to trans-configured 5-acyl-pyrazolines
in a fully regio- and diastereoselective manner. Initially formed
cycloadducts were aromatized by treatment with manganese dioxide.
Depending on the solvent used, the oxidation step either led to fully
substituted pyrazoles (DMSO) or proceeded via a deacylative pathway
to afford 1,3,4-trisubstituted derivatives (hexane) with excellent
selectivity.

Abstract
A method for the generation of trifluoromethylated β-keto diazos and their applications in intramolecular Appel type reactions are reported. The key success of this reaction is a diazo species as an N-nucleophile in Appel reactions. This reaction is conducted under mild conditions and has a broad substrate scope, affording trifluoromethylpyrazoles in ≤94% yields. This protocol represents a new type of Appel reaction and also a new reaction mode of fluoro diazoalkanes.
