Pd-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling of polyfluoroarenes with heteroatom-substituted enones

Org Lett. 2012 Feb 17;14(4):1176-9. doi: 10.1021/ol300240k. Epub 2012 Feb 9.

Abstract

The first example of intermolecular regioselective α-arylation of heteroatom-substituted enones with polyfluoroarenes via twofold C-H bond functionalization using a palladium catalyst is reported. This approach provides rapid access to a wide range of α-fluoroarylated enones of interest in life science.
