Abstract

Described here is the radical-mediated hydrodifluoromethylation of alkenes that occurs under transition-metal-free conditions by using the phosphonium salt [Ph3P+CF2H]Br- under the irradiation of 26 W household compact fluorescent light. The reaction lends itself to a convenient protocol for the installation of a C-CF2H bond while maintaining good functional group tolerance.
