This thesis describes C–F bond formations and polyfluoroarenation reactions, including the direct electrophilic fluorination of olefins, the highly stereocontrolled synthesis of fluorinated 2,6-trans dihydropyrans via Prins cyclization, and the Pd-catalyzed coupling of polyfluoroarenes and polyfluor...
