Convenient synthesis of ethyl 4-aryl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-carboxylates and 4-aryl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones: novel highly reactive CF3-containing building blocks

Org Lett. 2008 Jul 3;10(13):2857-9. doi: 10.1021/ol800992z. Epub 2008 Jun 7.

Abstract

An expedient synthesis of a series of 2-pyrones, bearing a CF 3 group at the 6-position and aryl group at position 4, from readily available aryl-4,4,4-trifluorobutane-1,3-diones, PCl 5, and sodium diethyl malonate is described.
