Application

Reagent Used for
  • Reductive silylation and the preparation of trifluoro- and difluoromethylsilanes by reductive coupling of fluoromethyl sulfones, sulfoxides and sulfides with chlorosilanes[1]
  • Fluoroalkylation/chloroalkylation of α,β-enones, arynes, acetylenic ketones and other Michael acceptors[2]
  • Difluoromethylation of primary alkyl halides via nucleophilic substitution-reductive desulfonylation[3]

Reagent used in Preparation of
  • α-difluoromethyl amines via stereoselective (phenylsulfonyl)difluoromethylation of chiral sulfinyl aldimines[4]
  • Anti-difluoropropanediols via potassium tert-butoxide-catalyzed difluoromethylenation of aldehydes[5]
  • β-difluoromethylated and β-difluoromethylenated alcohols and amines by regioselective nucleophilic difluoromethylation of 1,2-cyclic sulfates and sulfamidates[6]
  • Difluoroalkenes from alkyl halides via nucleophilic substitution-elimination[7]
  • Difluoromethyl alcohol derivatives from enolizable and non-enolizable carbonyl compounds using nucleophilic phenylsulfonyldifluoromethylation-reductive desulfonylation strategy[8]
  • Fluoromethylated vicinal ethylenediamines via fluoromethylation of chiral α-aminobutanesulfinimines with (phenylsulfonyl)fluoromethanes followed by reductive desulfonylation and alcoholysis[9]
