Abstract
An anti-Markovnikov difluoroacetamidation of α-(trifluoromethyl)styrenes was successfully performed, yielding 2,2,5,5,5-pentafluoropentanamides in good yields. This reaction was catalyzed by CuBr in the presence of pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA) in MeCN, conducted under a nitrogen atmosphere. To assess the influence of substituent groups on the aromatic ring, two series of substrates were tested within the developed catalytic system. Additionally, scale-up applications and mechanistic studies were carried out.
