Article Abstract
The indole skeleton exists widely in natural products, pharmaceuticals, and materials. We disclose here a trifluoromethyl group induced regioselective Larock indole synthetic method from unsymmetric 2-CF-1,3-enynes. The presence of a trifluoromethyl group is determinable for the regioselectivity. Once the CF group was replaced with the methyl or phenyl group, a ratio of 1:1 to 1:1.4 isomers were obtained. This strategy features good regioselectivity, broad substrate scope, and high functional group tolerance. The protocol reported here offers an alternative solution to the rare 3,4-functionalization of 2-CF-1,3-enynes. The products were further transformed to show distinctive reactivity in hydroboration-oxidation and hydro-bromination.

We describe a photomediated protocol for the trifluoromethoxylation of benzylic, aldehydic, and non-activated C-H bonds, using bis(trifluoromethyl)peroxide (BTMP, (FCO)) as the key reagent. Under catalyst-free conditions in acetone, this reaction proceeds with selective functionalization of benzylic methylene groups. Furthermore, by using tetrabutylammonium decatungstate as a photocatalyst, the scope extends to include both non-activated methylene C(sp)-H and formyl C(sp)-H bonds.

This study focused on the chemical synthesis of auxin analogs, wherein a trifluoromethyl group was introduced near the carboxyl group in the side chain of natural and synthetic auxins, including IAA, NAA, IBA, 2,4-D, and 4-Cl-IAA. The effects of these synthetic compounds and natural auxins on plant growth regulation and callus growth were evaluated. In experiments with black gram, CF-IAA and 4-Cl-CF-IAA exhibited comparable effects to the parent compound, IAA.

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are typically constrained to operate below 200 °C due to the thermionic emission effect and material degradation at high temperatures. Herein, high-temperature-resistant fluorinated polyimide nanofibers (4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic anhydride-4,4'-oxidianiline/2,2″-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 6FDA-ODA/TFDB) were designed to mitigate the thermionic emission effect through the introduction of trifluoromethyl (-CF) groups. 6FDA-ODA/TFDB nanofibers exhibited a fine fiber structure and a large highest occupied molecular orbital-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO-LUMO) gap, which enhanced its effective contact area and maintained more localized states for charge transfer.

Iron photocatalysis has emerged as a sustainable platform for C-H functionalization. This study describes a photocatalytic strategy for the selective defluorinative functionalization of polyfluorinated aromatics. The developed methodology enables selective defluorosulfonylation with sulfur dioxide and defluorinative alkylation with alkanes under visible light irradiation.

We report a reliable fully automated procedure to produce a promising F-18 labeled sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1) PET ligand, 3-((2-fluoro-4-(5-(4-(2-(fluoro-F)ethoxy)-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)benzyl) (methyl)amino)propan-1-ol ([F]FZTA) on the GE TRACERlab FX2N module, using a one-pot two-step procedure following current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). The MOM-protected precursor 1 was fluorinated with no-carrier-added [F]KF, catalyzed by Kryptofix 222 under heat, to afford the intermediate [F]2. After deprotecting the MOM-group on [F]2 under acidic condition, the reaction was quenched into a neutralized solution, which was then loaded on semi-preparative HPLC for purification.
