New (triflyl)cyclobutenes have been prepared by palladium-catalyzed hydrodetriflylation reaction using water and deuterium oxide as convenient hydrogen and deuterium sources. In addition, an investigation of the possible mechanism for this Tsuji-Trost type reaction of bis(triflyl)cyclobutenes has been facilitated by labelling studies and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
