Abstract
Multi-functionalized fluorinated arenes, especially those that are transformable fluorinated building blocks, are intriguing compounds in synthetic chemistry and for life science related applications. The development of straightforward and efficient approaches to these compounds is of significant importance and has, therefore, attracted much attention. This short review presents our recent progress on the fluoro-difunctionalization of arynes, which allows facile construction of a series of fluorinated arene building blocks bearing an ortho-iodine substituent as a coupling handle for further elaboration.
