نبذة مختصرة : International audience; New five-membered cyclic nitrones withgem-difluoroalkyl groups in gamma-position have been prepared by a 3-step sequence starting from propargylic alcohols. This domino process involves a base-mediated isomerization reaction to enones, which are trapped in situ by nitroalkane anions. In a final step, starting from these key precursors, a reduction-cyclization process affords the target molecules. Mono- and bicyclic nitrones have been prepared by this route which allows, as well, the synthesis of nitrones with functional groups in terminal position of the side chain.
