General procedure B: A sealed tube with magnetic stir bar was charged with Pd(OAc)2 (10 mol%, 2.2 mg), [F+]PF6- (0.15 mmol, 42.7 mg), C6F5CO2H (0.5 mmol, 106.0 mg), substrate (0.1 mmol), and TDG4 (25 mol%, 4.6 mg) in air. Then, DCM-d2 (0.45 mL) was added as solvent. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h, then at 70 oC for 24 hours. Upon completion, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, and the yields of the fluorination products were directly determined by 1H NMR analysis of the crude product using CH2Br2 (0.2 mmol, 14 uL) as the internal standard.1k was fluorinated following general procedure B described above (58% NMR yield of 3k). 1H NMR (600 MHz, CDCl3): δ 10.49 (s, 1H), 7.64 (td, J = 8.1, 5.7 Hz, 1H), 7.52 (d, J = 7.5 Hz, 1H), 7.15 (ddd, J = 10.7, 8.3, 1.0 Hz, 1H), 6.39 (dq, J = 48.7, 6.2 Hz, 1H), 1.60 (dd, J = 24.3, 6.2 Hz, 3H). 13C NMR (150 MHz, CDCl3): δ 188.52 (d, J = 11.8 Hz), 165.94 (dd, J = 258.0, 1.9 Hz), 146.59 (d, J = 20.0 Hz), 136.19 (dd, J = 10.3, 1.4 Hz), 120.96 (dd, J = 15.0, 3.6 Hz), 120.04 (dd, J = 6.3, 4.2 Hz), 115.38 (d, J = 21.4 Hz), 87.97 (dd, J = 168.4, 2.7 Hz), 23.20 (d, J = 24.8 Hz). 19F NMR (376 MHz, CDCl3): δ –121.00 (d, J = 4.9 Hz), –173.57 (d, J = 4.8 Hz). HRMS (ESI-TOF): m/z calculated for C9H9F2O+ [M+H]+ 171.0616, found 171.0620.
