Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Lingduan Meng"
- Recent research by Lingduan Meng focuses on the development of a novel method for the dearomative trifluoromethoxylation of indoles, addressing limitations in previous methodologies.
- The study successfully reports a broadly applicable reaction that achieves high yields (50-84%) and exceptional diastereoselectivity (up to 37:1), demonstrating the versatility of the approach.
- This work also highlights the potential of silver salts and an easily handled OCF reagent to facilitate diverse trifluoromethoxylation outcomes, paving the way for further exploration of fluorinated compounds.
