Abstract

Bromotrifluoromethane (CF₃Br) is a simple, inexpensive and abundant industrial material employed as a trifluoromethylating reagent. However, only limited strategies using CF₃Br as a fluorine source are reported. Herein, we describe a visible-light-induced hydrotrifluoromethylation of alkenes and alkynes with CF₃Br. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions with good functional group tolerance, providing a new route for the application of BrCF₃ in organic synthesis.

Key words

bromotrifluoromethane - hydrotrifluoromethylation - alkenes - alkynes - visible-light-induced

15 Hydrotrifluoromethylation with CF₃Br;Typical Procedure To a 25 mL Schlenk tube were added fac-Ir(ppy)₃ (0.5 mol%) and K₂CO₃ (126 mg, 0.9 mmol, 3.0 equiv). The mixture was then evacuated and backfilled with argon (3 times). The mixture was evacuated again and backfilled with CF₃Br (1 atm), followed by the addition of alkene 1b (0.3 mmol, 1.0 equiv) and anhydrous THF (1.5 mL). The tube was screw-capped and irradiated with a blue LED (12 W) at room temperature. After stirring for 30 h, the reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (2 mL) and filtered through a pad of Celite. The filtrate was concentrated, and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (hexane/EtOAc, 20:1) to give product 3b (50 mg, 60% yield) as a colorless oil.
