Abstract

Three new series of compounds, 5-alkoxy-3-(trifluoromethyl)penta-2,4-dienenitriles, 5-(phenylthio)-3-(trifluoromethyl)penta-2,4-dienenitriles, and ethyl 4-alkoxy-2-(cyanomethylene)but-3-enoates, obtained from the olefination reaction of the respective enones with diethyl cyanomethylphosphonate via the Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons olefination are reported. All products were obtained as single regioisomers; however, the composition of the stereoisomers changed according to the enone substituents. A study based on 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts, 1H–19F and 13C–19F NMR coupling constants, 1H NMR signal integrals, and HSQC, HMBC, and NOESY experiments was performed in order to assign the structure and percentage of each stereoisomer obtained.
