Use of fluoroform as a source of difluorocarbene in the synthesis of N -CF 2 H heterocycles and difluoromethoxypyridines
摘要:
Fluoroform is used as a source of difluorocarbene to convert various N-, O-, and C-nucleophiles to their difluoromethylated derivatives. Imidazole, benzimidazole, benztriazole, hydroxypyridines, and their derivatives underwent reaction at moderate temperatures and atmospheric pressure, using potassium hydroxide as base in a two-phase (water/acetonitrile) process to provide moderate to good yields of the respective products. Nitrophenols required addition of a co-solvent (methanol) to obtain good yields of products. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

using TMS-CF3 (the Ruppert–Prakash reagent) underneutralconditions. Difluoromethylated products were obtained in good-to-excellent yields. Inexpensive, commercially available starting materials, neutralconditions, and shorter reaction times are advantages of this methodology. Reactions are accessible through conventional as well as microwave irradiation conditions.
