The (2,2-difluoroethenyl)zinc reagent II is coupled with aryl iodides or bromides in the presence of Pd(PPh3)4 in DMF to give the corresponding 2,2-difluorostyrenes IV. The 4-substituted (tetrafluoroaryl)copper reagents are coupled with 2,2-difluoro-1-iodoethylene (I) to produce the corresponding styrene derivatives VII. Both methods provide good yields of the coupled products. These products react with wet KF in DMF or DMSO to form the (2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)benzene derivatives VIII in good yields.
