Trifluoromethyl ketones: properties, preparation, and application

Abstract

Trifluoromethyl ketones (TFMKs) are exceedingly valuable synthetic targets in their own right and as synthons in the construction of fluorinated pharmacons. This Feature Article provides an overview of the properties of TFMKs, an in-depth discussion of the methods available for their synthesis, and two illustrative examples of their application as key intermediates in medicinal chemistry.
