Appendix<br />

The organic phase was separated, washed with water (3 x 20 cm 3 ), dried over MgSO4 <strong>and</strong><br />

concentrated in vacuo to give a yellow solid. However 1 H <strong>and</strong> 19 F NMR spectroscopy<br />

revealed no desired product to be present.<br />

Reaction <strong>of</strong> 3-bromo-3,3-difluoroprop-1-ene with Pd(PPh3)4<br />

A 50 cm 3 , two-necked round-bottom flask was equipped with a magnetic stirring bar <strong>and</strong><br />

Rotaflo tap <strong>and</strong> attached to a Schlenk line. After flame-drying under high vacuum, <strong>the</strong> flask<br />

was cooled <strong>and</strong> filled with nitrogen. Pd(PPh3)4 (l equiv.), <strong>and</strong> anhydrous CDCl3 were added<br />

to <strong>the</strong> reaction flask in a dry box. Subsequently, <strong>the</strong> flask was reattached to <strong>the</strong> Schlenk line,<br />

filled with nitrogen <strong>and</strong> charged with 3-bromo-3,3-difluoroprop-1-ene (1 equiv.), after stirring<br />

<strong>the</strong> reaction for 5 minutes a small aliquot was transferred to an NMR tube, <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> reaction<br />

was monitored by 1 H <strong>and</strong> 19 F NMR spectroscopy <strong>and</strong> mass spectrometry. The desired Pd<br />

cationic complex was observed by mass spectrometry, however, <strong>the</strong> main product formed was<br />

3,3-difluoroallyltriphenylphosphonium bromide.
