An efficient route for the synthesis of 1-aryl-2,2-difluoroalkenes via 1,2-desilylative defluorination is disclosed. Only a catalytic amount of fluoride source is required to initiate the desilylation and afford gem-difluoroalkenes in very good to quantitative yields, using mild reaction conditions in dimethyl carbonate as a green solvent. This reaction uses (1-aryl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-silanes, which are easily prepared via the insertion reaction of trifluoroethyl diazo alkanes into the Si-H bond of tertiary organosilanes. (1-Aryl)-perfluoroalkyl-silanes cleanly afford the corresponding (Z)-1-benzylideneperfluoroalkanes, which upon hydrodefluorination furnish the (E)-β(perfluoroalkyl)styrene derivatives with excellent yield and complete stereoselectivity. A one-pot system involving sequential insertion and desilylative-defluorination is also suitable for this transformation. This method demonstrates the usefulness of organosilanes toward the preparation of fluorinated alkenes as synthetically useful targets.

The first catalyst for the alkoxycarbonylation of gem-difluoroalkenes is described. This novel catalytic transformation proceeds in the presence of Pd(acac)2/1,2-bis((di-tert-butylphosphan-yl)methyl)benzene (btbpx) (L4) and allows for an efficient and straightforward access to a range of difluoromethylated esters in high yields and regioselectivities. The synthetic utility of the protocol is showcased in the practical synthesis of a Cyclandelate analogue using this methodology as the key step.
A versatile difluorovinylation method: Cross-coupling reactions of the 2,2-difluorovinylzinc-TMEDA complex with alkenyl, alkynyl, allyl, and benzyl halides Dedicated to Professor Iwao Ojima on the occasion of his 70th birthday.

A thermally stable 2,2-difluorovinylzinc-TMEDA complex was prepared via a deprotonation-transmetallation sequence starting from commercially available 1,1-difluoroethylene. The complex thus formed was successfully applied to transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with a wide range of organic halides, which led to the syntheses of 2,2-difluorovinyl compounds. On treatment with the difluorovinylzinc-TMEDA complex in the presence of an appropriate palladium or copper catalyst, alkenyl, alkynyl, allyl, and benzyl halides effectively underwent difluorovinylation to afford 1,1-difluoro-1,3-dienes, 1,1-difluoro-1,3-enynes, 1,1-difluoro-1,4-dienes, and (3,3-difluoroallyl)arenes, respectively.
