Abstract

Regioisomerically pure trifluoromethyl-and trifluoromethoxy-substituted aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes and carboxylic acids are valuable building blocks for the synthesis of biologically active molecules. They have been prepared by employing modern organometallic methods. On this basis, a novel access to 2, 3-dihydro-5-(trifluoromethoxy) indole was developed which represents an intriguing example of how organometallic and ...
