Abstract

In this paper, a new type of effective chloroimination was reported. This reaction afforded 4- chloro-2-perfluoroalkyl quinolines from fluorinated imidoyl chlorides in high yields. This is the first achievement of oxidative addition− reductive elimination type C− Cl bond activation by chloropalladation.
