A range of alkenyltrimethylsilanes are converted to alkenyl
fluorides by reaction with one equivalent of Selectfluor™
(1-chloromethyl-4-fluoro-1,4-diazoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane
bis(tetrafluoroborate)), or difluoromethyl-substituted alcohols, ethers or
amides using an excess of Selectfluor™ in the presence of
various nucleophiles.
