Abstract

A highly controlled ring opening of siloxydifluorocyclopropanes, formed by nBuN4Br-catalyzed difluorocyclopropanation of methyl vinyl ketones bearing a β-alkylthio group by using TMSCF2Br as a unique difluorocarbene source, results in metal difluorohomoenolates with assistance of copper or silver followed by an intramolecular addition and elimination reaction leading to α-gem-difluorocyclopentenones efficiently.
