Abstract

A highly efficient, operationally simple approach to trifluoromethyl ketones has been developed that builds on the use of a tandem process involving Claisen condensation and retro-Claisen C–C bond cleavage reaction. Enolizable alkyl phenyl ketones were found to react readily with ethyl trifuoroacetate under the promotion of NaH to afford trifluoroacetic ester/ketone exchange products, trifluoromethyl ketones, which were quite different from ...
