The combo pack: Copper‐catalyzed trifluoromethylation of alkenes bearing an allylic proton combined with CCbondformation affords the title compounds in good to high yields (see scheme). The reactions are faster than allylic trifluoromethylation, especially in 1,4‐dioxane. A unique 1,6‐oxytrifluoromethylation occurred instead of an anticipated seven‐membered ring forming carbotrifluoromethylation
Guided by the transition-metal hydrogen atom transfer and radical-polar crossover concepts, we developed a functional-group-tolerant and scalable method for the synthesis of cyclic carbamates and ureas, which are found in the structures of bioactive compounds. This method provides not only a common five-membered ring but also six-to-eight-membered ring products. The reaction proceeds through the intramolecular
