New efficient palladium-catalyzed perfluoroalkylation of carbon-carbon multiple bonds with F-alkyl iodides. An expedient route to F-alkylated alkyl and alkenyl iodides
A variety of alkenes and alkynes efficiently undergo the perfluoroalkylation with F-alkyl iodides in the presence of a catalytic amount of tetrakis (triphenylphosphine) palladium (0) in hexane to give good yields of the corresponding F-alkylated alkyl and alkenyl iodides, respectively.
