Trihaloethenes as versatile building blocks for organic synthesis

Grossmann, Adriana S. and Magauer, Thomas (2016): Trihaloethenes as versatile building blocks for organic synthesis. In: Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry, Vol. 14, No. 24: pp. 5377-5389

Abstract

This review highlights the chemistry of trihaloethene building blocks with a special focus on commercially available 1,1,2-trichloroethene. The topics surveyed herein include the use of trihaloethenes as C-2-building blocks for transition metal-catalyzed coupling reactions, addition, elimination and cycloaddition reactions as well as natural product syntheses.
