Copper-mediated pentafluoroethylation of organoboronates and terminal alkynes with TMSCF3

The TMSCF3-derived CuCF2CF3 species has been successfully applied in pentafluoroethylation of organoboronates and terminal alkynes. By using 1,10-phenanthroline as a ligand, a broad range of (hetero)arylboronates and alkenylboronates were smoothly pentafluoroethylated under aerobic conditions. Furthermore, terminal alkynes can undergo aerobic cross-coupling with the TMSCF3-derived CuCF2CF3 species in the absence of additional ligands.

Solvated Nickel Complexes as Stoichiometric and Catalytic Perfluoroalkylation Agents**

The acetonitrile-solvated [(MeCN)Ni(C2F5)3]? was prepared in order to compare and contrast its reactivity with the known [(MeCN)Ni(CF3)3]? towards organic electrophiles. Both [(MeCN)Ni(CF3)3]? and [(MeCN)Ni(C2F5)3]? successfully react with aryl iodonium and diazonium salts as well as alkynyl iodonium salts to give fluoroalkylated organic products. Electrochemical analysis of [(MeCN)NiII(C2F5)3]? suggests that, upon electro-oxidation to [(MeCN)nNiIII(C2F5)3], reductive homolysis of a perfluoroethyl radical occurs, with the concomitant formation of [(MeCN)2NiII(C2F5)2]. Catalytic C?H trifluoromethylations of electron-rich arenes were successfully achieved using either [(MeCN)Ni(CF3)3]? or the related [Ni(CF3)4]2?. Stoichiometric reactions of the solvated nickel complexes reveal that “ligandless” nickel is exceptionally capable of serving as reservoir of CF3 groups under catalytically relevant conditions.

"ligandless" Pentafluoroethylation of Unactivated (Hetero)aryl and Alkenyl Halides Enabled by the Controlled Self-Condensation of TMSCF3-Derived CuCF3

Pentafluoroethylation of Arenediazonium Tetrafluoroborates Using On-Site Generated Tetrafluoroethylene

Copper-mediated pentafluoroethylation of arenediazonium tetrafluoroborates with tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) on-site generated from TMSCF3 has been developed as a new method to prepare pentafluoroethyl arenes. The active pentafluoroethylation reagent “CuC2F5” is pre-generated from CuSCN, TFE and CsF, and its generation and further reaction are strongly solvent-dependent. This pentafluoroethylation reaction represents the first example of Sandmeyer-type pentafluoroethylation, which exhibits good functional group tolerance and potential applications for the synthesis of complicated bioactive compounds.

From C1 to C2: TMSCF3 as a Precursor for Pentafluoroethylation

A highly efficient copper-mediated aromatic pentafluoroethylation method using TMSCF3 as the sole fluoroalkyl source is described. The reaction proceeds by a key C1 to C2 process, that is, the generation of CuCF3 from TMSCF3, followed by a subsequent spontaneous transformation into CuC2F5. Various aryl iodides were pentafluoroethylated with the TMSCF3-derived CuC2F5. This method represents the first practical and efficient method for pentafluoroethylation of aryl iodides using commercially available TMSCF3 as a pentafluoroethyl precursor.

CuI-Catalyzed Pentafluoroethylation of Aryl Iodides in the Presence of Tetrafluoroethylene and Cesium Fluoride: Determining the Route to the Key Pentafluoroethyl CuI Intermediate

The Cu(I)-catalyzed pentafluoroethylation of iodoarenes via the fluorocupration of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) is disclosed. The active species, (phen)CuC2F5, was isolated and its molecular structure confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The key to the successful suppression of the competing oligomerization of TFE is to refrain from stirring the reaction mixture. A mechanistic study clearly discarded the possibility that the catalytic reaction proceeds via a radical pathway.
