Abstract
A number of “Grignard-type” reactions of organic fluorine compounds were achieved by treating perfluoroalkyl iodides and substrates with zinc under the irradiation of ultrasound. The reactions include 1) Direct carboxylation of perfluoroalkyl iodides, 2) Perfluoroalkylation of carbonyl compounds, 3) Perfluoroalkylation of allyl, vinyl and aryl halides, and 4) Hydroperfluoroalkylation of alkynes and dienes.
