Abstract

Diethyl (1‐cyanoethyl) phosphorate 1 was reacted with n‐butyl‐lithium in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at ‐ 78 °C and the resulting carbanion 2 reacted with perfluoroalkanoic add anhydride to afford perfluoroacylated phosphorate 3. Without isolation 3 was attacked by Grignard reagents giving perfluoroalkylated α, β‐unsaturated nitriles in 46%‐88% yields with high Z‐stereoselectivity (Z: E = 89–62:11–38).
