Three component hydroxyletherification and hydroxylazidation of (trifluoromethyl)alkenes: access to α-trifluoromethyl β-heteroatom substituted tertiary alcohols

Abstract

The three component hydroxyletherification and hydroxylazidation reactions of (trifluoromethyl)alkenes are reported, providing various useful α-trifluoromethyl β-heteroatom substituted tertiary alcohols in high yields. The ipso-defluorooxylation of (trifluoromethyl)alkenes with oximes is completely inhibited. A pesticidal active compound could be synthesized with our method.
