Copper(I) fluoroalkoxidecomplexes bearing dinitrogen ligands were synthesized and the structure and reactivity of the complexes toward trifluoroethoxylation, pentafluoropropoxylation, and tetrafluoropropoxylation of aryl and heteroarylbromides were investigated.

A series of well-definedcopper(I) fluoroalkoxidecomplexes, [(phen)2Cu][OCH2RF], have been shown to undergo trifluoroethoxylation, pentafluoropropoxylation, and tetrafluoropropoxylation with aryl and heteroarylbromides to generate the corresponding trifluoroethyl, pentafluoropropyl, and tetrafluoropropyl (hetero)aryl ethers in good to excellent yields. The reaction tolerates a variety of functional
