Incorporating fluorine into organic molecules is a well-established strategy in designing advanced materials, agrochemicals, and pharmaceuticals. Among various modern synthetic approaches, functionalizing unsaturated bonds with simultaneous addition of trifluoromethyl group is currently one of the most attractive methods in development. This review highlights significant contributions in the chloro-, bromo-, iodo-, fluoro-, and cyano-trifluoromethylation of alkenes and alkynes over the last decade (2012-2021).
Incorporation of fluorine into organic molecules is a well-established strategy in the design of advanced materials, agrochemicals, and pharmaceuticals. Among numerous modern synthetic approaches, functionalization of unsaturated bonds with simultaneous addition of trifluoromethyl group along with other substituents is currently one of the most attractive methods undergoing wide-ranging development. In this review article, we discuss the most significant contributions made in this area during the last decade (2012-2021). The reactions reviewed in this work include chloro-, bromo-, iodo-, fluoro- and cyano-trifluoromethylation of alkenes and alkynes.
