We describe a new catalytic approach to selective functionalization of the strong C-F bonds in trifluoromethylaromatic (Ar-CF3) systems. In this approach, single electron reduction of Ar-CF3 substrates (using a photoredox catalyst) results in difluorobenzylic radical formation through a C-F cleavage

Fluorinated polymers are important materials that are widely used in many areas. Herein, we report the development of a metal-free photocontrolled radical polymerization of semifluorinated (meth)acrylates with a new visible-light-absorbing organocatalyst. This method enabled the production of a variety of
