Abstract:A chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective reaction of trifluoromethyl enones, phenylsilane, and phosphine oxides through a sequential hydrodefluorination and defluorophosphorylation relay is developed for the synthesis of distinctivegem-fluorophosphine alkenes. Thismulti-component reaction occurred under transition-metal-free conditions with good functional group tolerance. Moreover, the pre-installed carbonyl auxiliary is important for tuning the reactivity ofβ-trifluoromethyl enones, thereby enabling controllable and selective functionalization of two fluorine atoms in trifluoromethylated enones.
