Abstract:beta‐(Trifluoromethyl)styrenes are potentially useful building blocks for the synthesis of organofluorine compounds because their electron‐deficient C=C double bonds can undergo diverse transformations. One of the most practical methods for preparing b‐(trifluoromethyl)styrenes is the decarboxylative trifluoromethylation of readily available cinnamic acid derivatives using the Langlois reagent as a less expensive trifluoromethyl source. We revisited the electrochemical decarboxylative trifluoromethylation of c… Show more
