Petr Beier Group at IOCB Prague published in Chemistry – A European Journal a novel and practical, metal‐free method for the synthesis of novel β‐enamido‐sulfonates starting from N‐fluoroalkyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles.
The new method has a high functional‐group tolerance and following the synthetic transformation of vinyl triflates in cross‐coupling reactions leads to functionalized enamides.
Furthermore, the researchers were able to prepare 2‐fluoroalkyl oxazoles by a one‐pot procedure from electron‐rich triazoles by the cyclization of vinyl triflate intermediates.
