Asymmetric Cu-Catalyzed Intermolecular Trifluoromethylarylation of Styrenes: Enantioselective Arylation of Benzylic Radicals - Journal of the American Chemical Society (ACS Publications)

Asymmetric Cu-Catalyzed Intermolecular Trifluoromethylarylation of Styrenes: Enantioselective Arylation of Benzylic Radicals - Journal of the American Chemical Society (ACS Publications)A novel asymmetric radical trifluoromethyl-arylation of alkenes has been developed, which provides an efficient approach to access chiral CF3-containing 1,1-diarylmethane derivatives with good to excellent enantioselectivity.
