The [1,2]- and [2,3]-Stevens rearrangements are one of the most fascinating chemical bond reorganization strategies in organic chemistry, they have been demonstrated a wide range applications, representing fundamental reaction tactic for synthesis nitrogen compounds community. However, their applicabilities limited by scarcity efficient, general, straightforward methods generating ammonium ylides. Herein, we report general difluorocarbene-induced tertiary amine-involved stemmed from situ generated difluoromethyl ylides, which allows versatile amines bearing either allyl, benzyl, or propargyl groups, resulting corresponding products under same conditions with way. Broad substrate scope, simple operation, mild late-stage modification natural highlight advantages this strategy, meanwhile, rearrangement is believed to bring opportunities transformations ylides assembly valuable amino acids. This will further enrich repertoire difluorocarbene species, facilitate development reactions involving salts, provide an avenue type reactions.
