Chemoselective nickel-catalyzed difluoromethylation of aryl halides with (SIPr)AgCF <sub>2</sub> H as transmetalation reagent
A user-friendly method for the difluoromethylation of aryl iodides under nickel catalysis has been developed, employing readily accessible, light- and temperature-insensitive (SIPr)AgCF<sub>2</sub>H as CF<sub>2</sub>H source. A variety of electronically diverse arenes was smoothly transformed and the reaction displayed excellent levels of chemoselectivity, tolerating <i>inter alia</i> synthetically valuable triflates.
