Herein, we report a Rh-catalyzed carbofluorination of alkenes using gem-difluorinated cyclopropanes as bifunctional reagents. The developed method tolerates wide range alkenes, providing access to secondary, tertiary fluorides and gem-difluorides with 100% atom-economy under mild conditions. resulting can be further transformed yield C−C, C−N, C−O bifunctionalization products. Cationic dicarbonyl rhodium tetrafluoroborate has been identified the only highly efficient catalyst in this reaction. Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that addition fluorine atom is mediated by ion, which acts anion shuttle.

Published: June 20, 2023

Direct synthesis of gem-difluorinated carbocyclic molecules represents a longstanding challenge in organic chemistry. Herein, Rh-catalyzed [3+2] cycloaddition reaction between readily available cyclopropanes (gem-DFCPs) and internal olefins has been developed, enabling the efficient cyclopentanes with good functional group compatibility, excellent regioselectivity diastereoselectivity. The resulting products can undergo downstream transformations to access various mono-fluorinated cyclopentenes cyclopentanes. This demonstrates use gem-DFCPs as type "CF2 " C3 synthon for under transition metal catalysis, which provides potential strategy synthesizing other molecules.

Abstract By resorting to the principle of remote activation, we herein demonstrate first photoredox catalyzed (3+3) dipolar cycloaddition nitrones with aryl cyclopropanes. Key fidelity reaction resides in a facile manner substrate activation by single‐electron transfer (SET) oxidation catalysis, and takes place through stepwise cascade encompassing three‐electron‐type nucleophilic substitution triggered cyclopropane ring‐opening diastereoselective 6‐endo‐ trig radical cyclization manifold. The proceeds under mild conditions excellent regio‐ stereoselectivity, nicely complementing well‐developed Lewis acid donor‐acceptor Other merits protocol include wide scope cyclopropanes diversified patterns good functional‐group compatibility. A mechanism involving an cation promoted mode was also proposed supported mechanistic experiments.

1,1-Difluoroallenes underwent regioselective [2 + 2] and [3 cycloadditions with aldehydes using Au(I) catalysts. An AuCl catalyst enabled an α,β-selective cycloaddition of 1,1-difluoroallenes, yielding (E)-3-alkylidene-2,2-difluorooxetanes. Conversely, AuCl(IPr)-AgSbF6 facilitated α,γ-selective cycloaddition, followed by dehydrofluorination to produce aromatized 2-fluorofurans. DFT calculations (B3LYP level) suggested that the former reaction proceeded through Au(III)-containing metallacycles, while latter involved cyclic carbenoids.

A novel class of highly activated donor-acceptor cyclopropanes bearing only a single, vinylogous acceptor is presented. These strained moieties readily undergo cycloadditions with aldehydes, ketones, thioketones, nitriles, naphth-2-ols and various other substrates to yield the corresponding carbo- heterocycles. Diastereocontrol can be achieved through choice catalyst (Brønsted or Lewis acid).
