Abstract
An SN2? defluorinative allylation of trifluoromethylalkenes with readily available allylsilanes to access homoallyl gem-difluoroalkenes is reported. The reaction is triggered by a catalytic amount of TBAF, with the extruded fluoride in the reaction serving as a sustainable activator for organosilanes. The high efficiency, good functional group tolerance, and mild reaction conditions underline the potential of this method in synthetic chemistry.
