Abstract: Fairly high yields of α-polyfluoroalkyl ketones(aldehydes) formed in the reactions of enamines with polyfluoroalkyl iodides were characterized by UV,IR,MS,1H NMR,19F NMRand elemental analysis,The electron transfer in nature of these reactions was proved by spin trapping and inhibition experiments.The addition of catalytic amounts of SmI2 has significantly shortened the reaction time and increased the yields of α-polyfluoroalkyl ketones.
