This Article describes the development of a decarbonylative Pd-catalyzed aryl-fluoroalkyl bond-forming reaction that couples fluoroalkylcarboxylic acid-derived electrophiles [RFC(O)X] with aryl organometallics (Ar-M′). This reaction was optimized by interrogating the individual steps of the catalytic cycle (oxidative addition, carbonyl de-insertion, transmetalation, and reductive elimination) to identify a compatible pair of coupling partners and an appropriate Pd catalyst. These stoichiometric organometallic studies revealed several critical elements for reaction design. First, uncatalyzed background reactions between RFC(O)X and Ar-M′ can be avoided by using M′ = boronate ester. Second, carbonyl de-insertion and Ar-RF reductive elimination are the two slowest steps of the catalytic cycle when RF = CF3. Both steps are dramatically accelerated upon changing to RF = CHF2. Computational studies reveal that a favorable F2C-H - -X interaction contributes to accelerating carbonyl de-insertion in this system. Finally, transmetalation is slow with X = difluoroacetate but fast with X = F. Ultimately, these studies enabled the development of an (SPhos)Pd-catalyzed decarbonylative difluoromethylation of aryl neopentylglycol boronate esters with difluoroacetyl fluoride.

A palladium-catalyzed difluoromethylation of a series of aryl chlorides and triflates under mild conditions was described. A variety of common functional groups were tolerated. In addition, by using this protocol, several drug molecules containing an aryl chloride unit were successfully difluoromethylated, thus enabling medicinal chemists to rapidly access novel drug derivatives with potentially improved properties via late-stage functionalization.

A metal-free and selective method to form [18F]aryl-CF2H through nucleophilic radiofluorination of benzyl (pseudo)halides and oxidative C-H activation of benzylic C-H bonds has been developed. The method is operationally simple and tolerates a variety of electron-neutral/deficient arenes and heteroarenes.
