ChemInform Abstract: The Reaction of Cyclic β-Diketones with Trifluoromethylsulfenyl Chloride.
Abstract
Reaction of the cyclohexane-1,3-diones (I) with excess trifluoromethylsulfenyl chloride (II) gives the monosubstituted trifluoromethylsulfenyl derivative (III).
ChemInform Abstract
Reaction of the cyclohexane-1,3-diones (I) with excess trifluoromethylsulfenyl chloride (II) gives the monosubstituted trifluoromethylsulfenyl derivative (III). In the case of 1,3-indandione (IV), the bissubstituted product (V) is obtained under analogous conditions. Reaction of the anion of (IIIb) with (II) results in the formation of the bissulfenylated compound (IVb).
