Abstract

A [5 + 1] cyclization of 2-vinylanilines with polyfluoroalkanoic acids as both C1 synthons and fluoroalkyl building blocks under catalyst- and additive-free conditions provides concise access to diverse 2-fluoroalkylated quinolines in good yields with excellent functional group tolerance in high yield on a gram scale.
