Abstract

A facile and cost-effective method for the preparation of fluoroalkylated compounds has been described by the direct photoexcitation of halofluoroalkanes with blue light absorptivity, enabling the difluoroalkylation of aryl ketones. The methodology has provided an efficient, mild, and catalyst-free synthetic method for quaternary difluoroalkylated arenes and tetrasubstituted monofluoroalkenes.
