Abstract:The Mizoroki-Heck reaction represents one of the most convenient methods for carbon-carbon double bond formation in the synthesis of small organic molecules, natural products, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and functional materials. Fluorine-containing organic compounds have found wide applications in the research areas of materials and life sciences over the past several decades. The incorporation of fluorine-containing segments into the target molecules by the Mizoroki-Heck reactions is highly attractive, as these reactions efficiently construct carbon-carbon double bonds bearing fluorinated functional groups by simple procedures. This review summarizes the palladium-catalyzed Mizoroki-Heck reactions using various fluorine-containing reagents as the cross-coupling partners. The first part of the review describes the Pd-catalyzed Mizoroki-Heck reactions of aryl halides or pseudo-halides with the fluorinated alkenes, and the second part discusses the Pd-catalyzed Mizoroki-Heck reactions of the fluorinated halides or pseudo-halides with alkenes. Variants of the Pd-catalyzed Mizoroki-Heck reactions with fluorine-containing reagents are also briefly depicted. This work supplies an overview, as well as a guide, to both younger and more established researchers in order to attract more attention and contributions in the realm of Mizoroki-Heck reactions with fluorine-containing participants.
