Abstract

Abstract α‐Trifluoromethylselenolated enones constitute valuable building‐blocks for further synthesis of innovative fluorinated compounds. Herein, we described an easy access to such compounds in green conditions through a Morita‐Baylis‐Hillman like reaction. These conditions have also been extended to higher fluorinated homologs.
