Synthesis of fluorinated allenes via palladium-catalyzed monofluoromethylation using FBSM

Masamichi Ogasawara, Hidetoshi Murakami, Tatsuya Furukawa, Tamotsu Takahashi and Norio Shibata


Palladium-catalyzed monofluoromethylation of substituted 2-bromo-1,3-dienes using fluorobis(phenylsulfonyl)methane (FBSM) as a pronucleophile gave previously unknown monofluoromethylated allenes in high yields, which are the isosteres of biologically attractive allenic alcohols.
