Copper-Catalyzed Intermolecular Trifluoromethylazidation of Alkenes: Convenient Access to CF3-Containing Alkyl Azides

摘要

A novel copper-catalyzed intermolecular trifluoromethylazidation of alkenes has been developed under mild reaction conditions. A variety of CF3-containing organoazides were directly synthesized from a wide range of olefins, including activated and unactivated alkenes, and the resulting products can be easily transformed into the corresponding CF3-containing amine derivatives.
