62. Recently, Hirano, Miura, and co-workers reported the Cu-catalyzed C sp 2 H allylation of fluoroarenes with allylic phosphates. The introduction of secondary alkyl groups to fluoroarenes was specifically described for the case of 2-cycloheptenyl phosphate. Under their conditions, the reaction of an asymmetrically 1,3-disubstituted secondary allylic phosphate with pentafluorobenzene was not regiocontrolled:, T. Yao, K. Hirano, T. Satoh, M. Miura, Angew. Chem. 2011, 123, 3046-3050

64. Recently, Zhang and co-workers reported a Pd and Cu co-catalyzed method for C sp 2 H primary allylation of fluoroarenes with allylic carbonates. A secondary alkylation product was described only as a minor by-product in the formation of a primary allylation product:, S. Fan, F. Chen, X. Zhang, Angew. Chem. 2011, 123, 6040-6045
