A sequential NHC-amine catalyticcascade reaction has been developed to assemble aromatic aldehydes, trifluoroacetaldehyde ethyl hemiacetal and enals asymmetrically into CF3-substituted chiral γ-butyrolactone derivatives featuring vicinal quaternary and tertiary stereocenters. This approach incorporates a highly chemoselective intermolecular cross-benzoin reaction and a highly regioselective Michael-acetalization

A highlychemoselectiveintermolecularcrossed acyloin condensation between aromaticaldehydes and trifluoroacetaldehyde ethyl hemiacetal has been developed under mild reaction conditions using N-heterocyclic carbene as a catalyst. A wide range of aromaticaldehydes bearing electron-withdrawing and -donating substituents underwent a smooth transformation to their corresponding trifluoromethyl containing

Efficient preparation of synthetically important CF3-containing α,β-unsaturatedesters is described using an NHC-catalyzed multicomponent reaction. This approach combines sequential NHC-mediated HOMO and LUMO activation to produce a C–C bond and C–O bond in a one-pot operation.
Facile synthesis of aromatic unsymmetrical fluorine-containing acyloins through the reductive trifluoroacetylation of benzaldehyde and transposition of the carbonyl group
The reductive coupling reaction between benzaldehyde and ethyl trifluoroacetate in the presence of magnesium and chlorotrimethylsilane in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone gave the acetal of the corresponding coupling compound in good yields. The yield of the coupling product largely depended on the benzaldehyde concentration in the solution and it was essential to avoid the formation of pinacol type compounds
