Modular synthesis of α-fluorinated arylmethanes via desulfonylative cross-coupling

α-Fluoromethyl arenes are common substructures in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals but synthetic routes are still rare. Here the authors describe Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of α-fluorinated benzylic triflones with arylboronic acids affording structurally diverse α-fluorinated diaryl...
