Abstract
A library-friendly synthesis of α-substituted-α-fluoroketones through functionalized hydration of alkynes in one pot under mild conditions is reported. The ready availability of alkynes and organoboronic acids makes this reaction quite attractive. We also studied the key intermediate—a fluorinated cationic gold species—using in situ NMR spectroscopy and ESI-high resolution mass spectrometry.
