Abstract
A photoredox defluorinative silylation of α-trifluoromethyl arylalkenes for rapid access to useful gem-difluoroalkenes is disclosed. Stable and easily prepared silacarboxylic acids are used as silyl radical precursors in a photocatalytic decarboxylative process. The mild conditions and operational simplicity make our method a straightforward strategy to construct gem-difluoroalkenes bearing various functional groups, and a powerful strategy for incorporating a gem-difluoroalkene moiety into natural products and drug molecules.

- 16 Silylated gem-Difluoroalkenes 3a–z; General Procedure A screw-capped vial equipped with a stirrer bar was charged with the appropriate silanecarboxylic acid 1 (0.1 mmol, 1.0 equiv), difluoroalkene 2 (0.11 mmol, 1.1 equiv), 4CzIPN (PC1 ; 2 mol%), and K2CO3 (0.15 mmol, 1.5 equiv) under N2 in a glove box. EtOAc (1.5 mL) was added the vial from a syringe, and the vial was sealed with a cap containing a PTFE septum and removed from the glove box. The stirred mixture was then irradiated by a 20 W blue LED under a N2 balloon for 12 h. When the reaction was complete, the crude mixture was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, PE).
