1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition of Difluoro-Substituted Azomethine Ylides. Synthesis and Transformations of 2-Fluoro-4,5-dihydropyrroles

2-Fluoro-4,5-dihydropyrrole-3,4-dicarboxylic acid derivatives were obtained by reaction of difluorocarbene with N-substituted ketone imines in the presence of fumaronitrile, maleonitrile, or dimethyl maleate.
