Copper‐Catalyzed Decarboxylative Cross‐Coupling of Potassium Polyfluorobenzoates with Aryl Iodides and Bromides

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

For copper only: The decarboxylative cross-coupling of readily accessible and nonvolatile potassium polyfluorobenzoates with aryl iodides and bromides using a copper catalyst provides polyfluorobiaryls and polyfluorostilbenes in excellent yields (see scheme). Mechanistic analyses are reported for the title reaction.
