The light-induced, Ru-catalyzed three-component alkyl-fluorination of olefins under mild reaction conditions is reported. This carbofluorination reaction features a wide substrate scope and good functional group tolerance. A key advantage of this photoredox reaction is the use of nucleophilic fluoride and generic alkyl groups. Late-stage functionalizations are achieved, and a copper-assisted oxidative quenching mechanism is proposed based on the mechanistic studies.

A combinatorial nickel-catalyzed monofluoroalkylation of aryl halides with unactivated fluoroalkyl halides by reductive cross-coupling has been developed. This method demonstrated high efficiency, mild conditions, and excellent functional-group tolerance, thus enabling the late-stage monofluoroalkylation of diverse drugs. The key to success was the combination of diverse readily available bidentate and monodentate pyridine-type nitrogen ligands with nickel, which in situ generated a variety of readily tunable catalysts to promote fluoroalkylation with broad scope with respect to both coupling partners. This combinatorial catalysis strategy offers a solution for nickel-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling reactions and provides an efficient way to synthesize fluoroalkylated druglike molecules for drug discovery.
