Abstract
Trifluoromethyl enol ethers and thioenol ethers conjugated with an uns aturation in the beta-position undergo addition/elimination reactions with organolithium reagents to yield the corresponding trifluoromethyl alkenes while preserving the geometry of the double bond. Trofluorome thyl enamines exhibit a different reactivity towards organolithium rea gents with a vinyl anion being formed to preference to addition/elimin ation products.
