Abstract

The visible light mediated coupling of α-fluoroacrylic acids with N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) redox-active esters provides monofluoroalkenes under mild conditions. This decarboxylative reaction  exhibited excellent functional group compatibility and delivered monofluoroalkene products with excellent Z-stereoselectivity.
