Herein, we describe a convenient general protocol for monofluoroalkenylation reactions of alkyl bromides involving cooperative visible-light photoredox catalysis and halogen abstraction. Mechanistic experiments showed that the products were generated by selective cross-coupling of aliphatic radicals with fluoroalkenyl radicals. Silyl radical-mediated halogen abstraction enabled the protocol to be used for the monofluoroalkenylation of a broad range of alkyl and heteroaryl halides. The protocol could be carried out on a gram scale and was applied to cholesterol, indicating its utility for late-stage monofluoroalkenylation reactions.

The first visible-light-induced trifluoromethylation and monofluoroalkenylation of simple alkenes via a challenging radical–radical cross-coupling step was achieved. This method provided a mild, step-economical and redox-neutral route to privileged two different fluorinated difunctionalized allyl compounds. The utility of this method is illustrated by late-stage modification of medically important molecules.

The direct conversion of diaryl ketones and enolizable aliphatic aldehydes into gem-difluoroalkenes has been a long-standing challenge in organofluorine chemistry. Herein, we report efficient strategies to tackle this problem by using difluoromethyl 2-pyridyl sulfone as a general gem-difluoroolefination reagent. The gem-difluoroolefination of diaryl ketones proceeds by acid-promoted Smiles rearrangement of the carbinol intermediate; the gem-difluoroolefination is otherwise difficult to achieve through a conventional Julia-Kocienski olefination protocol under basic conditions due to the retro-aldol type decomposition of the key intermediate. Efficient gem-difluoroolefination of aliphatic aldehydes was achieved by the use of an amide base generated in situ (from CsF and tris(trimethylsilyl)amine), which diminishes the undesired enolization of aliphatic aldehydes and provides a powerful synthetic method for chemoselective gem-difluoroolefination of multi-carbonyl compounds. Our results provide new insights into the mechanistic understanding of the classical Julia-Kocienski reaction. What a gem! The gem-difluoroolefination of diaryl ketones was realized by an acid-promoted Julia-Kocienski olefination reaction at elevated temperatures. The gem-difluoroolefination of aliphatic aldehydes and chemoselective gem-difluoroolefination of dicarbonyl compounds was achieved with the use of an amide base generated in situ (see scheme).
