Vg. Nenajdenko et al., PREPARATION OF ALPHA,BETA-UNSATURATED KETONES BEARING A TRIFLUOROMETHYL GROUP AND THEIR APPLICATION IN ORGANIC-SYNTHESIS, Molecules, 2(12), 1997, pp. 186-232
The approaches to the synthesis of alpha,beta-unsaturated CF3-containi
ng ketones and their use in organic chemistry are reviewed. The synthe
tic applications of these ketones are discussed. The formation of 4-,
5-, 6- and 7-membered heterocycles bearing a CF3 group based on reacti
ons of alpha,beta-unsaturated CF3-containing ketones with different nu
cleophiles are discussed.
