Abstract
A novel domino copper-catalyzed trifluoromethylated Meyer-Schuster rearrangement reaction with Togni's reagent provides α-trifluormethyl enones with moderate to good yields. Furthermore, these α-CF3 enones can be transformed toward interesting trifluoromethyl-substituted heterocycles in a one-pot reaction.
