title: Iridium-catalyzed reactions of trifluoromethylated compounds with alkenes: a C(sp3)-H bond activation alpha to the trifluoromethyl group.
abstract: Catalytic convenience: The use of iridium or ruthenium catalysts for C(sp(3))-H bond activation has led to the addition reaction of trifluoromethylated compounds to alkenes (see scheme). This atom-economical reaction occurs under neutral reaction conditions and without the formation of undesired defluorinated by-products, even at high temperature.
