acetals and ketals are easily obtained in moderate yields from the [1 + 2] cycloaddition of difluorocarbene to 1,3-dioxolanes of alpha,beta-unsaturated aromatic aldehydes and ketones. Hydrolysis of these fluorinated compounds under acidic conditions either gives the corresponding gem-difluorocyclopropyl ketones or 1-aryl-2-fluorofuran derivatives through intramolecular carbonium rearrangement with simultaneous
Highly regioselective vinylation of electron-rich olefins by bromo- as well as chlorostyrenes is effected by palladium catalysis with either mono- or bidentate phosphines in a molecular solvent, with no need for halide scavengers, ionic liquids, or ionic additives. The use of the hemilabile 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane monoxide (dpppO) as a ligand led to faster reactions of more challenging 2-substituted
