摘要

The valorization of fluorinated waste for the synthesis of value-added non-per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) presents a substantial challenge. Fluoroform (HFC-23), an extremely potent waste greenhouse gas produced in multi-tonne quantities, has traditionally been incinerated or utilized as a C1 building block. Here we report the application of fluoroform to the synthesis of trifluorovinylamine, an original C2 building block. Trifluorovinylamine exhibits unique reactivity and functions as a difluoroacylium surrogate. This distinctive reactivity facilitates the efficient formation of α,α-difluoromethyl ketones via electrophilic aromatic substitution and enables the development of a hydrodifluoroacetylation reaction. This class of reagent not only introduces alternative chemical reactivity but also offers an innovative pathway for the valorization of HFC-23, advancing the synthesis of non-PFAS compounds.
