Pauson-Khand Reaction of Internal Dissymmetric Trifluoromethyl Alkynes. Influence of the Alkene on the Regioselectivity

The scope of the Pauson-Khand reaction (PKR) of internal trifluoromethyl alkynes, previously described with norbornadiene, is expanded to norbornene and ethylene. A thorough structural analysis of the resulting PK adducts has been carried out to unveil that α-trifluoromethylcyclopentenones are prefe...
