Abstract

Abstract Image

A domino approach of Heck coupling was used to synthesize β-trifluoromethylstyrene derivatives from iodoarenes and 1-iodo-3,3,3-trifluoropropane in moderate to good yields. This method avoids the use of low-boiling, gaseous reagents such as 3,3,3-trifluoropropene, and additives and phosphines in the catalytic system.
