Org Lett. 2018 Feb 16;20(4):934-937. doi: 10.1021/acs.orglett.7b03811. Epub 2018 Feb 2.

Abstract

In situ formed 1,2-diaza-1,3-dienes were used in formal [4 + 1]-annulation reactions with fluorinated sulfur ylides. This protocol provides a novel and efficient method for the synthesis of 5-(trifluoromethyl)pyrazolines in moderate to excellent yields.
