Title: Copper-Catalyzed Trifluoromethylation of Alkoxypyridine Derivatives. Author: Gyorfi N, Farkas E, Nemet N, Weber C, Novak Z, Kotschy A. Journal: Molecules; 2020 Oct 16; 25(20):. PubMed ID: 33081411. Abstract: The trifluoromethylation of aromatic and heteroaromatic cores has attracted considerable interest in recent years due to its pharmacological relevance. We studied the extension of a simple copper-catalyzed trifluoromethylation protocol to alkoxy-substituted iodopyridines and their benzologs. The trifluoromethylation proceeded smoothly in all cases, and the desired compounds were isolated and characterized. In the trifluoromethylation of 3-iodo-4-methoxyquinoline, we observed a concomitant O-N methyl migration, resulting in the trifluoromethylated quinolone as a product. Overall, the described procedure should facilitate the broader use of copper-catalyzed trifluoromethylation in medicinal chemistry.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
