Cobalt-Catalyzed Hydroxyperfluoroalkylation of Alkenes with Perfluoroalkyl Bromides and Atmospheric Oxygen

A mild and efficient method for the cobalt-catalyzed hydroxyperfluoroalkylation of alkenes has been developed. This method demonstrated broad substrate scope, good yields, and mild conditions with the tolerance of mono-, di-, and trisubstituted alkenes including both styrenes and non-activated aliphatic olefins. This strategy offered a valuable solution for rapid and efficient construction of β-perfluoroalkyl alcohols using widely available and inexpensive perfluoroalkyl bromides and atmospheric oxygen.

Electroreductive coupling of halofluoro compounds with aldehydes

Electroreductive intermolecular coupling of halofluoro compounds such as 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane, methyl chlorodifluoroacetate, and perfluoroalkyl halides with aldehydes took place effectively in the presence of chlorotrimethylsilane and one of the coupling products, 2,2-dichloro-3,3,3-trifluoro-1-phenyl-1-propranol, was selectively convertible to a variety of compounds with using the electroreduction as a key reaction.
