Lead tetraacetate (LTA) can smoothly induce the addition reaction of difluorodiiodomethane (1) with electron-rich alkenes at 60°C in diglyme to give monoadducts (RCHICH2CF2I) and diadducts (RCHICH2)2. The similar, clean reaction of fluoroolefins, such as tetrafluoroethene, hexafluoropropene, with 1 occurs only in acetic acid. However, non-fluorinated β-iodo,β-unsaturated carboxylic esters are obtained when 1 reacts with alkynes in alcohol. The iododifluoromethyl radical generated by possible pathways from 1 with LTA is discussed.
