The ring-opening reaction of 3,3,3-trifluoropropene oxide with carbanions: Reaction of alpha-cyanocarbanions

Nucleophilic ring-opening reaction of 3,3,3-trifluoropropene oxide (TFPO) was studied. Reaction of TFPO with carbanions stabilized by cyano group gave gamma-cyanohydrins in moderate to good yields. Meanwhile, reaction of the carbanions from malonic ester and nitromethane resulted in recovery of TFPO...
