Polyfunctional fluoroalkyl-containing carbonyl compounds in the synthesis of heterocycles

Abstract

Efficient procedures for the regioselective synthesis of fluoroalkyl-containing threefive-, six-, and seven-membered heterocycles as well as of related fused compounds, namely, α,β-epoxyketones, α,β-aziridinylketones, pyrazoles, pyrazolines, isoxazolines, 1,2-dithiolenes, amino- and mercaptopyrimidines, Δ3,5-2-thioxo-1,3,2-thiazaphosphorines, Δ3,5-2-thioxo-1,3,2-oxazaphosphorines, 2,3-dihydro-1,4-diazepines, azirino[1,2-a]quinoxalines, benzo[b]-and naphtho[2,3-b]-1,4-diazepines, and triazolopyridazines, which have been developed by the authors and coworkers, are summarized. The α- and β-functionalized fluoroalkylcontaining carbonyl compounds (β-diketones, β-ketoesters, their salts, regioisomeric β-aminovinyl ketones, β-aminovinylthiones, β-hydroxyketones, α,β-enones, and their halogen derivatives) were used as synthons in the processes of formation of the above-mentioned heterocycles.
