Amine‐Ligated Boryl Radicals Enables Direct C─F Borylation and Cross‐Couplings of Polyfluoroarenes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We present a synergistic strategy combining photocatalytic direct C─F borylation of polyfluoroarenes with Suzuki–Miyaura cross‐coupling. The high nucleophilicity of amine‐ligated boryl radicals enables efficient homolytic aromatic substitution of polyfluoroarenes, forming stable amine–borane adducts that resist protodeboronation and can be directly ...

Difluoro Carbenes: From Genuine Gold Complexes to Unprecedented Metallacyclic Reactivity

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Thanks to chelating ligands and enhanced backdonation, genuine gold(I) difluorocarbenes persistent for hours at −30 °C or even 0 °C have been obtained. In addition to classical Fisher‐type electrophilic behavior, these complexes display unprecedented reactivity toward alkenes and 1,3‐dienes.
