Abstract
An I2O5-promoted decarboxylative trifluoromethylation of a series of cinnamic acids and their derivatives by using sodium trifluoromethanesulfinate in aqueous media was demonstrated. This strategy provides a safe and convenient access to various trifluoromethylated (E)-alkenes in a very high selectivity. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
