Abstract

CF3CFBr2 was employed in catalytic olefination reactions of aromatic aldehydes. In situ prepared hydrazones of aldehydes were transformed to β-fluoro-β-(trifluoromethyl)styrenes by reaction with CF3CFBr2 under CuCl catalysis. Based on this reaction, a novel stereoselective approach towards β-fluoro-β-(trifluoromethyl)styrenes was elaborated. Nucleophilic vinylic substitution of fluorine by secondary amines, thiolates and alkoxides in β-fluoro-β-(trifluoromethyl)styrenes was also tested.
