Abstract

Fluorination of allyl β-keto carboxylates using N-fluoro-2,4,6-pyridinium triflate gave allyl α-fluoro-β-keto carboxylates. Reaction of allyl α-fluoro-β-keto carboxylates with formic acid in the presence of palladium-phosphine catalyst gave α-fluoro ketones. When the palladium-catalyzed reaction was carried out without formic acid, the decarboxylation-allylation took place to give α-fluoro-allylketones. Decarboxylation-dehydrogenation to afford α-fluoro-α,β-unsaturated ketones was carried out with palladium catalysts in acetonitrile.
