| Abstract: | An unprecedented silver‐catalyzed formal insertion of arynes into Rf?I (Rf=CF3, C2F5) bonds has been developed. This protocol provides easy access to various ortho‐perfluoroalkyl iodoarenes under mild conditions. In this insertion reaction, an ionic atom‐transfer reaction of RfI occurs, and a silver‐mediated metathesis process is involved in the efficient transfer of the electropositive iodine atom. |
