A direct approach to a-hydroxy and a-chloro trifluoromethyl derivatives
Abstract
S-1-Acyloxy-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl and S-1-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl dithiocarbonates add efficiently to various functionalised olefins to give the corresponding adducts via a radical chain reaction initiated by a small amount of lauroyl peroxide.
