Cobalt‐Catalyzed Silyldifluoromethylamination of Styrenes with<scp>TMSCF<sub>2</sub>H</scp> and Nitrogen Nucleophiles<sup>†</sup>
Comprehensive Summary Aminosilylalkanes are important motifs in bioactive molecules, yet methods for their direct incorporation remain limited. In particular, the efficient introduction of gem ‐difluoro groups–known to significantly modulate the physical, chemical, and biological properties of organic molecules–into aminosilylalkane remains a challenge. Herein, we report a cobalt‐catalyzed silyldifluoromethylamination of styrenes using TMSCF 2 H and nitrogen nucleophiles. By employing readily available starting materials, a series of complex, highly functionalized aminosilyldifluoroalkane derivatives were synthesized in moderate to good yields. This methodology establishes a novel strategy for constructing organosilicon compounds, complementing existing synthetic approaches.
