A new synthetic strategy towards alpha-pentafluorosulfanyl carboxyl compounds Was developed. Starting from allylic esters, which were prepared from fluorinated or fluorine free allylic alcohols by esterification with pentafluorosulfanylacetyl chloride, a range of trans-configured gamma,delta-unsaturated alpha-pentafluorosulfanyl carboxylic acids were synthesized via Ireland-Claisen rearrangements. The formation of intermediate (E)- and (Z)-enolates as the key-step was confirmed by NMR spectroscopy, which also indicated that only the (Z)-enolates rearrange, while the (E)-enolates are stable under the reaction conditions and hydrolyze back to the starting allylic esters during aqueous workup. As a consequence an incomplete rearrangement of the starting esters was observed. Transformation of the formed acids into the corresponding methyl esters allowed an easier isolation of the desired pentafluorosulfanyl-containing products. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
