Abstract
In this study, we have developed the tandem trifluoromethylselenolation/cyclization of alkenes to synthesize the CF3Se‐containing heterocycles with trifluoromethyl selenoxide as the trifluoromethylselenolation reagent and Tf2O as the catalyst. This transformation featured mild conditions and easy operation. Both CF3Se‐containing oxindoles and benzoxazines could be obtained in useful yields. Based on the preliminary results and previous reports, a mechanism involving the generation of the electrophilic CF3Se species was proposed.
期刊介绍:
Organic chemistry is the fundamental science that stands at the heart of chemistry, biology, and materials science. Research in these areas is vigorous and truly international, with three major regions making almost equal contributions: America, Europe and Asia. Asia now has its own top international organic chemistry journal—the Asian Journal of Organic Chemistry (AsianJOC)
The AsianJOC is designed to be a top-ranked international research journal and publishes primary research as well as critical secondary information from authors across the world. The journal covers organic chemistry in its entirety. Authors and readers come from academia, the chemical industry, and government laboratories.
