Abstract
A Ru-catalyzed defluorinative cyclization of polyfluoroalkyl tetralones has been developed under visible-light irradiation for the precise assembly of γ-pyrones featuring α-perfluoroalkyl and β-fluorine substituents. Selective functionalization of five C(sp3)–F bonds at three carbon sites on the perfluoroalkyl chain provides a new mode for utilizing polyfluorides as versatile synthons to access difficult-to-obtain heterocyclic scaffolds. Moreover, the sulfinate salt serves dual roles as an oxygen source for creating the carbonyl group and as a defluorinating promoter.
期刊介绍：
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
