Abstract

Abstract An extension of the scope of the Grignard reaction of fluorinated compounds is reported. Fluorohalogenoethanes of the general formula CF 3 CXYZ (X= F, Cl, Br; Y, Z= Cl, Br) were found to undergo smoothly the metal-halogen exchange reaction with alkyl-or aryl- magnesium halides at low temperature to yield organometallic compounds CF 3 CXYMgHal. The Grignard compounds were reacted with a series of aldehydes and ketones to give the ...
