Abstract

An efficient tandem route for the synthesis of polyfluoroterphenyl derivatives has been developed. The target compounds were obtained in moderate to good yields by a Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed three-component coupling reaction involving palladium-catalyzed direct CH activation of perfluoroarenes. This in turn will set the stage for a wide application of this useful reaction for the synthesis of fluorinated liquid crystal compounds containing the privileged polyfluoroterphenyl structure.
