Reactions of TFDA with Ketones. Synthesis of Difluoromethyl 2,2-Difluorocyclopropyl Ethers
摘要:
The sequential reaction of 2 equiv of difluorocarbene (generated from trimethylsilyl fluorosulfonyldifluoroacetate (TFDA) by treatment with catalytic fluoride ion) with a series of electron-rich aromatic ketones and alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones leads to the formation of difluoromethyl 2,2-difluorocyclopropyl ethers in good yield.
