The Pd-catalyzed synthesis of difluoroethyl and difluorovinyl compounds with a chlorodifluoroethyl iodonium salt(CDFI)

摘要

Herein, we report a simple and efficient method for the direct installation of chlorodifluoroethyl group onto aromatic molecules of various aromatic amides with a new 2-chloro,2,2-difluoroethyl(mesityl)iodonium salt(CDFI). Moreover, the chlorodifluoroethyl compounds could be smoothly converted into difluorovinyl compounds in a one-pot or discrete procedure and regarded as a steady source of difluorovinyl compounds with “HCl-mask”.
