Abstract: The copper-mediated fluroalkylation/cyclization of moderate to good yields with unactivated double bonds as the
N-allyl anilines has been described using fluoroalkyl iodides as radical acceptor. This protocol combines a simple experimental

With the optimal conditions in hand, we turned to investi-


gate the scope and the limitations of the reactions. As shown
in Table 2, alkenes with various substitution on the phenyl ring
well tolerated in this transformation, leading to the correspond-
ing perfluoroalkylated indolines (3aa–3da) in moderate to
good yields. It should be noted that the substrate containing
pyridin-4-amine could be smoothly converted into the desired
product 3ea in 71 % yield. The effect of protecting groups on
the nitrogen atom was further examined. N-(2-methylallyl)
anilines protected by propionyl group reacted with 2a
smoothly to provide the corresponding indolines (3fa–3ga) in
60–76 % yields. Similarly, long-chain protecting groups such as
butyl, and octanoyl also showed good reactivity in this transfor-
mation (3ha–3ja). Boc-protected indoline 3ka could be ob-
tained in high yields under the standard conditions. By using
3-chlorobenzoyl group as protecting group, 2a can react selec-
tively with the benzene ring of the N-phenyl group instead of
the benzene ring of the 3-chlorobenzoyl group, furnishing the
product 3la in 62 % yield. Meanwhile, various sulfonyl protect-
ing groups including alkylsulfonyl (such as methylsulfonyl, eth-
ylsulfonyl, and N,N-dimethylsulfamoyl) and arylsulfonyl groups
(phenylsulfonyl, tosyl, and o-tolylsulfonyl) could be applied in
this protocol, bringing out the desired products 3ma–3wa in [a] Reaction conditions: 0.5 mmol of 1, 1.5 mmol of 2, and 1.5 equiv. of Cu

Experimental Section
General Information: Unless otherwise noted, all commercial ma-
terials and solvents were used without further purification. 1H NMR
and 13C NMR spectra were referenced to TMS and residue CHCl3 at
0.00 ppm and 77.16 ppm, respectively. High-resolution mass spec-
tra (HRMS) were measured with ESI in positive mode.
General Procedure for the Synthesis of N-Allyl Anilines or Sulf-
onamides Substrates (2b as an Example):[14] A mixture of p-tolu-
idine (1.607 g, 15.0 mmol), CH2Cl2 (50.0 mL), and Et3N (4.170 mL,
30.0 mmol), was placed in a round-bottom flask equipped with a
magnetic stir bar. To this mixture was added acetyl chloride
(1.273 mL, 18.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room
temperature. After p-toluidine was consumed, as indicated by TLC,
the reaction mixture was quenched with aqueous NaHCO3 (100 mL)
and extracted with CH2Cl2 (100 mL) three times. The combined or-
ganic phase was washed with brine (50 mL) two times. After re-
