Abstract
1-Bromo-1,3-difluoropropan-2-one (2) reacts with cyclopentadiene, fura n and 2,5-dimethylfuran in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol/sodium 2,2,2-trifluo roethoxide to form 2,4-difluorobicyclo[ 3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one (7b) and the 8-oxa analogues (7a, 7c). The endo orientation of the fluoro subst ituents at C-2 and C-4 indicates a concerted [4 + 3] cycloaddition of a W-configurated difluoro-oxyallyl intermediate (5) via a compact tran sition state.
