Tang, Ren-Jin published the artcileFriedel-Crafts alkylation reaction with fluorinated alcohols as hydrogen-bond donors and solvents, Application of (E)-4-(2-Nitrovinyl)benzonitrile, the publication is RSC Advances (2018), 8(19), 10314-10317, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
An effective and clean Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indoles and electron-rich arenes with β-nitroalkenes in hexafluoroisopropanol is reported. The desired products were formed rapidly in excellent yields under mild conditions without the need for any addnl. catalysts or reagents. Further, this methodol. could be applied to one-pot synthesis of biol. active tryptamine derivatives
