ABSTRACT: The control of linear/branched selectivity is one of the major focuses in transition-metal catalyzed allyl–allyl cross-coupling reactions, in which bond connection occurs at the terminal site of both the allyl fragments forming different types of 1,5-dienes. Herein, terminal/internal regioselectivity is investigated and found to be switchable in allyl–allyl cross-coupling reactions between gem-difluorinated cyclopropanes and allylboronates. The controlled terminal/internal regioselectivity arises from the fine-tuning of the rhodium catalytic system. Fluorinated 1,3-dienes, 1,4-dienes and 1,5-dienes are therefore produced in good yields with respectively isomerized terminal, internal, and terminal regioselectivity. Rh-catalyzed regio-switchable cross-coupling reactions of gem-difluorinated cyclopropanes with allylboronates have been developed. Fluorinated 1,4-dienes, 1,5-dienes and 1,3-dienes are produced in good yields with excellent regioselectivity.
