Abstract
Abstract The synthesis of the trifluoromethyl group containing enol ethers by the palladium-catalyzed intermolecular reaction of 2,3,3-trifluoroallylic carbonates with oxygen nucleophiles was accomplished. The reaction proceeds through the intermolecular attack of oxygen nucleophiles on the C-2 carbon atom of the allylic unit, and the intramolecular fluorine atom shift from the C-2 position to the C-3 position. The reactions with several types of alcohols and phenols proceeded smoothly, and afforded the corresponding trifluoromethyl group containing enol ethers in good to high yields.
