Ih. Jeong et al., Preparation of novel beta,beta-diphenyl alpha-(trifluoromethyl)vinylstannane and its cross-coupling reactions with aryl iodides, TETRAHEDR L, 41(46), 2000, pp. 8917-8921
beta,beta -Diphenyl-alpha-(trifluoromethyl)vinylstannane 6 was prepared in
good yield via several steps from 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-1-phenyl-1-phenylthio
propene. The cross-coupling reactions of 6 with aryl iodides in the presenc
e of a catalytic amount of Pd(PPh3)(4) and CuI provided trifluoromethylated
triphenylethene derivatives 7 in high yields. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Lt
