Researchers have developed an NHC-catalyzed benzannulation reaction for the synthesis of benzotrifluorides using enals and beta-trifluoromethylenones. This reaction involves a [4 + 2] annulation/lactonization/decarboxylation/oxidative aromatization cascade catalyzed by NHC. The reaction shows mild conditions, excellent functional group compatibility, and exclusive regioselectivity, resulting in the formation of multi-substituted benzotrifluorides in moderate to good yields.

A series of multi-substituted benzotrifluorides were obtained in moderate to good yields.
