Summary on Grant Application Form |
The proposed programme will develop novel and general routes to cyclic fluoroketones using ring expansion reactions. Exocyclic difluoroenol ethers will be synthesised using known procedures and the efficiency of [3, 3]-claisen rearrangement will be determined. Metallated difluoroenol carbamate chemistry will be used to synthesise a range of compounds capable of undergoing oxy-Cope rearrangement systems will be determined by varying the correlating the efficiency of rearrangement with the polar character of the 1, 5-dien-3-ol and. A wide range of cyclic difluoroketones will be generated in this way.
