Alkenylfluorosilanes as Widely Applicable Substrates for the Palladium-Catalyzed Coupling of Alkenylsilane/F- Reagents with Alkenyl Iodides

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jo00263a003

Introduction of fluorine(s) to the silyl groups of alkenylsilanes accelerated the rate of the coupling reaction with alkenyl iodides mediated by fluoride ion and palladium catalyst.The new version of the silicon-based coupling reaction has provided a general and highly stereospecific route to 1,3-dienes as well as alkenylarenes.
