An effective [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of difluoromethyl or trifluoromethyl hydrazonoyl bromides with alkylidene pyrazolones was disclosed. This method provides an efficient approach for accessing a variety of highly functionalized fluoroalkyl spiropyrazolones in good yields. This protocol also features some advantages such as easily available and stable substrates, simple operation procedures, and atom and step economy. The formation of (cis)- and (trans)-products was discussed.
