A new Pd-catalyzed reaction for the coupling between perfluoroalkyl iodides (R(F)I) and simple aromatic substrates is described. The perfluoroalkylated arene products are obtained in good to excellent yields in the presence of a phosphine-ligated Pd catalyst and Cs(2)CO(3) as a base. The development, optimization, scope, and preliminary mechanistic studies of these transformations are reported.
