Synthesis of bicyclic difluorinated analogues of sugars

This thesis describes the synthesis of gem-difluorinated cyclooctenone analogues using building block approaches based on the RCM with Grubbs' catalysts.;Des- and gem-dialkyl-substituted difluorodienes were synthesised from commercially available trifluoroethanol by dehydrofluorination/metalati...
