Deoxygenation of phenols appears to be an important tool in the field of organic synthesis; l palladium-catalyzed reduction of perfluoroalkane sulfonates has arisen in the last few years as an important method with mild reaction conditions and concomitant high chemoselectivity. 2 However, the synthesis of perfluoroalkane sulfonates from the corresponding phenols can sometimes be a major problem3 in terms of selectivity, ...
