Catalytic hydrotrifluoromethylation of unactivited alkenes

A visible-light-mediated hydrotrifluoromethylation of unactivated alkenes that uses the Umemoto reagent as the CF3 source and MeOH as the reductant is disclosed. This effective transformation operates at room temperature in the presence of 5 mol % Ru(bpy)3Cl2; the process is characterized by its ope...

Description
Summary:A visible-light-mediated hydrotrifluoromethylation of unactivated alkenes that uses the Umemoto reagent as the CF3 source and MeOH as the reductant is disclosed. This effective transformation operates at room temperature in the presence of 5 mol % Ru(bpy)3Cl2; the process is characterized by its operational simplicity and functional group tolerance.
