Visible‐Light‐Promoted Synthesis of Fluoroalkylated Oximes

2018 
: A method has been developed for the synthesis of fluoroalkylated oximes, potential fluoroalkyl building-blocks for the synthesis of various organofluorine compounds, from easily available amino substrates and fluoroalkylated alkenes. tBuONO was utilized both as a diazotizing agent and as a NO radical source for the oxime synthesis in the process, and the use of a photocatalyst under visible-light irradiation increased the efficiency of the reaction. Various fluoroalkylated oximes were prepared by a tandem process of aryl radical addition to fluoroalkylated alkene and consecutive oxime generation process, albeit in moderate yields. This differentiated approach, transferring an aromatic system into an electron-deficient fluoroalkylated alkene, expands the scope of substrates where electron-poor aromatic systems could be utilized.
