In situ generation of formyl fluoride for Pd-catalyzed fluoro-carbonylation of aryl, vinyl, and heteroaryl iodides
Acyl fluorides have gained much attention as robust and versatile synthetic tools in synthetic chemistry. While several synthetic routes to acyl fluorides have been reported, a procedure involving the direct insertion of the "fluoro-carbonyl" moiety using a single reagent has not yet been realized.
