Heteroatoms perfluoroalkylation

Fluorinated heterodienophiles and heterodienes Diels-Alder reactions in which the dienophiles have perfluoroalkyl-substituted multiple bonds between carbon and a heteroatom are quite common Reported earlier were reactions of perfluoroketones, thiones, ketimines, thioesters, nitroso compounds, and nitriles [9] Examples of a-fluoroimines [107], co-hydroperfluorothioaldehydes [108], perfluorosulfines [109, IIO], and selenocarbonyidifluoride [III] (equations 89-92) have been reported recently... 

Thus the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds with one or more heteroatoms along with perfluoroalkyl groups is possible if the fluorinated molecule has a multiple bond and if an anionic center may be generated at the heteroatom or carbon atom of the functional group in intramolecular nucleophilic cyclization reactions. These new approaches point to the specific effect of fluorine atoms and to the important role of the electronic effects in... 

Systemization of experimental data on the syntheses of heterocyclic compounds with perfluoroalkyl groups from perfluoroolefins is based on reactions with various 1,1-, 1,2-, 1,3-, and 1,4-binucleophilic reagents. While the main features of nucleophilic reactions are preserved, further transformations of the primary products (or adducts, or the products of substitution of the functional groups at the internal multiple bond) occur under the influence of the added functional group containing a heteroatom. Here one can expect dramatic differences in the effect of the nature of the nucleophilic reagent between cyclizations by new nucleophilic centers and centers already available in the molecule. Another important aspect is isomerization of the primary internal olefin into the terminal olefin or internal olefin with a different structure under the action of the nucleophilic agent. This may be critical to the structure of the heterocycle formed. 

D. The calculations confirm that the negative end of the dipole is towards phosphorus. - The calculated dipole moments of phosphole (1.9 D) and pyrrole (2.0 D) are similar, and, unlike furan, the positive ends of the dipoles are towards the heteroatoms. Dipole moments have been used, in combination with results from other methods of study, to estimate the preferred conformations of the dichloride (179), of the phosphites (180), and of triarylphosphine oxides. The use of dipole moments to aid stereochemical studies of compounds has been reviewed. Additive polarizability parameters should not be used in the calculations, and it has been recommended that data should be obtained from model compounds containing identical environments for the phosphorus atoms. The sensitivity of bond moments to structural changes has been studied perfluoroalkyl groups lower the phosphoryl bond moment, and the P—N bond moment is very sensitive to the valence state of the phosphorus atom. The conformational analyses of phospho-nates, phosphonamides, silyl phosphates, and a number of dioxaphosphori-nans (181) - have been reported. The P—Se bond moment has been estimated to be 1.24 D. The zwitterionic structure (182) was identified by its high dipole... 

The SET reactions can be initiated by organic anions such as carbanions and heteroatom anions, reducing organic reagents such as tetrakis(N,N-dimethylamino)ethene, low valent metal, and electrochemical reduction. Irradiation by UV light is sometimes useful for the acceleration of SET reactions, but it is not necessarily required when good electron donors, for instance thiolates instead of thiols, are used. The chain reactions of, in particular, less reactive perfluoroalkyl bromides are inhibited by species such as nitrobenzene, para-dinitrobenzene, and hydroquinone [3,6]. The reactivity order of perfluoroalkyl hahdes... 

Because of the radical mechanism for SET reactions, introduction of both a perfluoroalkyl group and a heteroatom moiety to the carbon-carbon double [17-20] and even triple [21] bonds is possible. The initially generated perfluoroalkyl radicals add first to olefins to form a new radical intermediate (23), which then couples with anions (22) to form new anion radicals (24). The formation of the product (25) and the chain propagation via electron transfer from anion radicals (24) to perfluoroalkyl halides constitutes a chain reaction as shown in Scheme 2.38. Sulfur [19], selenium [20], tellurium [21], and phosphorus [22] anions (22) have been employed for these reactions [23]. 

Electrophilic perfluoroalkylation has been performed with the use of iodonium salts RfI(Ar)X, where the perfluoroalkyl group is bonded with a positively charged heteroatom. The trifluoromethylation of thiophene 1 with CgFi7l(Ph)0S02CF3 in dichloromethane at room temperature proceeds in 73 % yield in the presence of 2,6-di-terf-butyl-4-methylpyiidine as a base [46].
