N-heterocyclic carbene-catalysed pentafluorophenylation of aldehydes

Abstract

N-heterocyclic carbenes have been utilized as highly efficient organocatalysts to catalyse multifluorophenylation of aldehydes with pentafluorophenyltrimethylsilane or bis(trimethylsilyl)tetrafluorobenzene to afford the corresponding fluorinated adducts in 49–99% yields.
