Bis(perfluoroalkanoyl) peroxides as reagents for perfluoroalkylations.

Abstract
Bis (perfluoroalkanoyl) peroxides were found to be useful reagents for perfluoroalkylations ; various perfluoroalkyl groups, such as perfluoromethyl, perfluoropropyl, or perfluoroheptyl, can be introduced into electron-rich benzenes, olefins, or heteroaromatic compounds in a similar procedure. The perfluoroalkylations proceed under mild conditions in high yields and regioselectively
