Key Points

  • The aim is to develop a unified strategy for synthesizing CF3-functionalized fluorenes and dibenzofulvenes.
  • Utilized palladium-catalyzed allylic arylation.
  • Employed CF3–π–allyl–Pd complexes as key intermediates.
  • Explored two distinct pathways: α-selective nucleophilic addition and intramolecular isomerization.
  • First α-selective nucleophilic addition in CF3–π–allyl–Pd chemistry achieved CF3-fluorenes.
  • Intramolecular Tsuji–Trost allylation produced CF3-dibenzofulvenes.

Abstract

We report a unified palladium‐catalyzed allylic arylation strategy for the divergent synthesis of CF 3 ‐functionalized fluorenes and dibenzofulvenes from CF 3 –π‐allyl‐Pd complexes. One pathway features the first α‐selective nucleophilic addition in CF 3 –π‐allyl‐Pd chemistry to yield CF 3 ‐fluorenes, while the other follows intramolecular Tsuji–Trost allylation and isomerization to generate CF 3 ‐dibenzofulvenes.
