Owing to their unique properties, molecules containing the difluoromethyl group (CF2H) are of great interest. Tributyl(difluoromethyl)stannane has now been used for the selective and efficient direct ipso difluoromethylation of aryl iodides, heterocyclic iodides, and β‐styryl halides (see scheme). The straightforward preparation of the difluoromethylating reagent makes this approach particularly valuable
A silver‐mediated oxidative difluoromethylation of styrenes and vinyl trifluoroborates with TMSCF2H is reported for the first time. This method enables direct and facile access to CF2H‐alkenes from abundant alkenes with excellent functional‐group compatibility. Moreover, this Ag/TMSCF2H protocol could further enable a series of radical difluoromethylation reactions of a wide array of substrates, offering
