Abstract
The reaction of linear push–pull enamines bearing a methyl group at the α-position with a set of trifluoromethylated carbonyl compounds was investigated. It has been found that the reaction proceeds at the methyl group of the enamines. The first computational study of the reaction between push–pull enamines and strong electrophilic reagents was reported. Out of three pathways considered DFT and MP2 calculations support ene-mechanism previously suggested based on experimental results only.
