Fluoroform is used as a source of difluorocarbene to convert various N-, O-, and C-nucleophiles to their difluoromethylated derivatives. Imidazole, benzimidazole, benztriazole, hydroxypyridines, and their derivatives underwent reaction at moderate temperatures and atmospheric pressure, using potassium hydroxide as base in a two-phase (water/acetonitrile) process to provide moderate to good yields of the respective products. Nitrophenols required addition of a co-solvent (methanol) to obtain good yields of products.

A facile and practical approach for the difluoromethylation of phenols and thiophenols was described. Making use of the recently developed bench-stable S-(difluoromethyl)sulfonium salt as the difluorocarbene precursor, a wide variety of diversely functionalized phenols and thiophenols were readily converted to their corresponding aryl difluoromethyl ethers in good to excellent yields in the presence of lithium hydroxide. Chemoselectivity of various O,S-nucleophiles toward difluorocarbene was systematically studied, suggesting the reactivity order ArS- > RS-, ArO- > ROH > RO-, ArSH, ArOH, RSH.
