Abstract
A one-pot metal-free decarboxylative procedure for accessing β,β,β-trifluoroethylarenes and -heteroarenes from readily available ketones and aldehydes features several benefits, including ease of operation, readily available reagents, mild reaction conditions, high functional-group compatibility, and scalability.
