Here, we describe a base-mediated nucleophilic substitution reaction that efficiently synthesizes carbonyl-substituted gem-difluoroalkenes using simple silyl enol ethers. This protocol offers mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, and scalability. Importantly, it demonstrates the applicability for late-stage functionalization of structurally complex molecules and provides valuable precursors for the synthesis of diverse medicinally relevant compounds.
Herein, we present a base-mediated nucleophilic substitution reaction of a-trifluoromethylstyrenes with simple silyl enol ethers, enabling the efficient synthesis of carbonyl-substituted gem-difluoroalkenes. The merit of this protocol is exhibited by its mild reaction conditions, broad substrate scope, and scalable preparation. Notably, this method demonstrates its applicability for late-stage functionalization of structurally complex molecules. Moreover, we illustrate that the resulting products can serve as valuable precursors for the synthesis of diverse medicinally relevant compounds.
