Huang, Lin Zheng, Sheng-Cai Tan, Bin Liu, Xin-Yuan Metal-Free Direct 1,6- and 1,2-Difunctionalization Triggered by Radical Trifluoromethylation of Alkenes A metal-free direct remote C–H functionalization triggered by radical trifluoromethylation of alkenes was explored, realizing highly selective 1,6-difunctionalization of alkenes toward valuable trifluoromethyl α-hydroxycarbonyl compounds. Furthermore, a metal-free direct intermolecular regioselective 1,2-oxytrifluoromethylation of alkenes is also disclosed. With Togni’s reagent as both the CF<sub>3</sub> source and oxidant, the reaction exhibits a broad substrate scope with excellent functionality tolerance under mild metal-free conditions, thus showing great potential for synthetic utility. alkene;CF 3 source;Radical Trifluoromethylation;reaction exhibits;substrate scope;functionality tolerance 2015-03-20
