Rates, activation parameters, and product distributions are reported for the reaction of methanolic sodium methoxide with XC6H4CH = CF2 (V) and C6F5CH = CF2 (IX) and compared to previously reported results for C6H5C(CF3) = CF2 (I).A ρ = 3.5 was calculated
Fluoride-Triggered Synthesis of 1-Aryl-2,2-difluoroalkenes via Desilylative Defluorination of (1-Aryl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-silanes

An efficient route for the synthesis of 1-aryl-2,2-difluoroalkenes via 1,2-desilylative defluorination is disclosed. Only a catalytic amount of fluoride source is required to initiate the desilylation and afford gem-difluoroalkenes in very good to quantitative yields, using mild reaction conditions in dimethyl carbonate as a green solvent. This reaction uses (1-aryl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-silanes, which are easily prepared via the insertion reaction of trifluoroethyl diazo alkanes into the Si-H bond of tertiary organosilanes. (1-Aryl)-perfluoroalkyl-silanes cleanly afford the corresponding (Z)-1-benzylideneperfluoroalkanes, which upon hydrodefluorination furnish the (E)-β(perfluoroalkyl)styrene derivatives with excellent yield and complete stereoselectivity. A one-pot system involving sequential insertion and desilylative-defluorination is also suitable for this transformation. This method demonstrates the usefulness of organosilanes toward the preparation of fluorinated alkenes as synthetically useful targets.

A simple and convenient technique has been developed for the synthesis, characterisation and isolation of hydrofluoro/hydrohalofluorocarbons such as chlorodifluoromethane (CF2ClH), difluoromethane (CF2H2), bromodifluoromethane (CF2BrH) and dibromofluoromethane (CFBr2H) as possible chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) alternatives. The Wittig reaction of carbonyl compounds with in situ generated triphenylphosphonium ylides in DMF forms terminal fluoroolefins. However, in the absence of the carbonyl moiety these ylides undergo decomposition. The high reactivity of fluoromethylene triphenylphosphonium ylides in DMF in the absence of the carbonyl moiety has been exploited for the first time to design the synthesis of hydrofluorocarbons.
Use of kinetic isotope effects in mechanism studies. Isotope effects and element effects associated with Hydron-Transfer steps during alkoxide-promoted dehydrohalogenations

The Arrhenius behavior of the primary kinetic isotope effect, (k(H)/k(D))(Obs) and (k(H)/k(T))(Obs), associated with the methanolic sodium methoxide-promoted dehydrohalogenations of m-ClC6H4C(i)HClCH2Cl (I), m-CF3C6H4C(i)-HClCH2Cl (II) and p-CF3C6H4C(i)HClCH2F (III) has been used to calculate the internal-return parameters, a = k(-1)/K(Elim)(X), in a two-step mechanism featuring a hydrogen-bonded carbanion. This carbanion partitions between returning the hydron to carbon, k(-1), and the loss of halide, K(Elm)(X). Isotope effects at 25°C for I, (k(H)/k(D))(Obs) = 3.40 and (k(H)/ k(T))(Obs) = 6.20, and II, (k(H)/k(D))(Obs) = 3.49 and (k(H)/k(T))(Obs) = 6.55, result in similar values for a: a(H) = 0.59, a(D) = 0.13-0.14 and a(T) = 0.07. Smaller values of (k(H)/k(D))(Obs) = 2.19 and (k(H)/k(T))(Obs) = 3.56 for III are due to more internal return [a(H) = 1.9, a(D) = 0.50, and a(T) = 0.28] associated with the dehydrofluorination reaction. Calculation of k1 ( k(Obs) [a + 1]) results in similar isotope effects for hydron transfer in these reactions: k1(H)/k1(D) = 4.74 and k1(H)/K1(T) = 9.20; II, k1(H)/k1(D) = 4.91 and k1(H)/k1(T) = 9.75; III, k1(H)/k1(D) = 4.75 and k1(H)/k1(T) = 9.17. Reactions of m-ClC6H4C(i)HBrCH2Br and m-ClC6H4C(i)HClCH2Br have very small amounts of internal return, a(H) = 0.05 and a(D) = 0.01, and (k(H)/k(D))(Obs) = 4.95 results in k1(H)/k1(D) = 5.11 The measured isotope effects are therefore due to differences in the amount of internal return and not in the symmetry of transition state structures for the hydron transfer, and the element effect, (k(HBr)/ k(HCl)) = 29, for m-ClC6H4CHClCH2X is mainly due to the hydron-transfer step, k1(HBr)/k1(HCl) = 19, and not the breaking of the C-X bend. The kinetic solvent isotope effects, k(MeOD)/k(MeOH) ~ 2.5, are consistent with three methanols of solvation lost prior to the hydron-transfer step. The energetics associated with desolvation of methoxide ion are part of the measured reaction energetics of these systems.
A New Route for the Preparation of Substituted 2,2-Difluorostyrenes and a Convenient Route to Substituted (2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl)benzenes

The (2,2-difluoroethenyl)zinc reagent II is coupled with aryl iodides or bromides in the presence of Pd(PPh3)4 in DMF to give the corresponding 2,2-difluorostyrenes IV. The 4-substituted (tetrafluoroaryl)copper reagents are coupled with 2,2-difluoro-1-iodoethylene (I) to produce the corresponding styrene derivatives VII. Both methods provide good yields of the coupled products. These products react with wet KF in DMF or DMSO to form the (2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)benzene derivatives VIII in good yields.
