Abstract

Ketone derivatives Q 0370Platinum (II)-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Polyfluoroaryl Imines. -The reaction with ZnMe 2 is selective for ortho-C-F (and C-Cl) activation and tolerates bromine and cyano groups in the substrate. In all cases, ortho-methyl imines are obtained exclusively. -(WANG, T.; ALFONSO, B. J.; LOVE*, J. A.; Org. Lett. 9 (2007) 26, 5629-5631; Dep. Chem., Univ. British Columbia, Vancouver, B. C.
