Abstract
The Blaise reaction between the zinc dienolate of ethyl 3-bromodifluoromethyl-3-benzyloxyacrylate and a variety of nitriles gave a series of α-difluorovinyl substituted β-enaminoesters in good yield, which readily underwent hydrolysis to the corresponding β-ketoesters. Direct coupling of this zinc dienolate with acyl chloride also furnished the same α-difluorovinyl substituted β-ketoester, though in low yield, while the tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene (TDAE) mediated reaction provided γ-CF2 carbon and oxygen acylated products.
Key words
