Abstract 3-Fluorocyclobutene (1) and 3-chlorocyclobutene (2) have been obtained by simpler syntheses and in higher yield than previously reported. One of the synthetic steps involves a three-phase-transfer-catalysis technique that could be of wider utility. New examples are cited of applying AgF 2, an underutilized reagent, as a fluorinating agent near room temperature. Compounds 1 and 2 have been characterized by mass, NMR and ...
