The electrophilic addition of allylic silanes and silyl enolates to CF3-semisquarate afforded the corresponding 4-hydroxycyclobutenones. Subsequent ring expansion of these products via thermolysis or oxidation using lead tetraacetate afforded trifluoromethylated bicyclo[3.2.0]heptenones or (Z)-γ-alkylidenetetronates.}, pages = {1413--1419}, title = {Electrophilic Derivatization of Trifluoromethyl-Substituted Semisquarate Using Unsaturated Organosilanes and Subsequent Ring Transformations}, volume = {359}, year = {2017} }
