Abstract

AbstractThe reaction of alkynyldifluoroboranes RC≡CBF2 (R = (CH3)3C, CF3, (CF3)2CF) with organyliodine difluoride R′IF2 bearing electron‐withdrawing polyfluoroorganyl groups R′ = C6F5, (CF3)2CFCF=CF, C4F9, and CF3CH2 leads to the corresponding alkynyl(organyl)iodonium salts [(RC≡C)(R′)I][BF4]. This approach uses a widely applicable method as demonstrated for a representative series of polyfluorinated aryl‐, alkenyl‐, and alkyliodine difluorides. Generally, these syntheses proceed with good yields and deliver pure iodonium salts. The distinct electrophilic nature of their [(RC≡C)(R′)I]+ cations is deduced from multinuclear magnetic resonance data. Within the series of new iodonium salts [CF3C≡C(C4F9)I][BF4] is an intrinsic unstable one and decomposed forming CF3C≡CI and C4F10.
