Recycle Waste Salt as Reagent: A One-Pot Substitution/Krapcho Reaction Sequence to alpha-Fluorinated Esters and Sulfones

摘要

A "one-pot" tandem substitution/Krapcho reaction is reported for the facile synthesis of alpha-fluorinated esters and sulfones, which utilizes the byproduct salt formed in the substitution step as an indispensible reagent to facilitate the Krapcho reaction step. This represents the first sustainable tandem reaction that internally recycles the waste salt formed in the upstream step as the reagent for the downstream step.
