Facile Preparation of Fluorine-containing Alkenes, Amides and Alcohols via the Electrophilic Fluorination of Alkenyl Boronic Acids and Trifluoroborates

Abstract
Reaction of alkenyl boronic acids, or preferably alkenyl trifluoroborates, with one equivalent of SelectfluorTM gives the corresponding alkenyl fluorides. A similar reaction with two equivalents of SelectfluorTM in water or a nitrile solvent gives difluoromethyl-substituted alcohols and amides respectively.
