The synthesis of arylCF2CF2SiMe3 and their reactivity in cross-coupling reactions with aryl iodides and aryl bromides to afford a range of 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoro-1,2-arylethanes is reported. The use of pyridine as an alternative to phenanthroline, and the ability to carry out the reaction at 60 °C or room temperature are the key features of this Cu-Ag mediated cross-coupling methodology. The chemistry is compatible with (hetero)aryl halides, offering a platform to develop products of interest in material and medicinal chemistry.

Programming and synthesizing bifunctional materials for regulating the output of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) and their photocatalytic efficiency is a promising strategy for energy harvesting to build self-powered systems. Herein, we tackle this challenge by introducing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as molecular catalysts and triboelectric layers for self-powered photocatalytic systems. A zeolite-like mixed-valence MOF () and a ladder-structured MOF () were obtained through structural transformation.

Diaryl difluoromethanes are valuable targets for medicinal chemistry because they are bioisosteres of diaryl ethers and can function as replacements for diaryl methane, ketone, and sulfone groups. However, methods to prepare diaryl difluoromethanes are scarce, especially methods starting from abundant aryl halides. We report the Pd-catalyzed aryldifluoromethylation of aryl halides with aryldifluoromethyl trimethylsilanes (TMSCF Ar).

To synthesize -ethynylene-conjugated porphyrin arrays, the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction is straightforward to construct the C(sp)-C(sp) bonds, but the reaction is often accompanied by side reactions such as the Glaser homocoupling. The rate-determining oxidative addition step results in the unexpected kinetic competition with the Glaser homocoupling, which is desired to be circumvented. We here propose two sets of improved strategies for the synthesis of arylene-ethynylene-linked porphyrin arrays from the -brominated porphyrin and alkynes.

The trifluoromethyl group is widely prevalent in many pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals because its incorporation into drug candidates could enhance chemical and metabolic stability, improve lipophilicity and bioavailability, and increase the protein bind affinity. Consequently, extensive attention has been devoted toward the development of efficient and versatile methods for introducing the CF3 group into various organic molecules. Direct trifluoromethylation reaction has become one of the most efficient and important approaches for constructing carbon-CF3 bonds.
