The first Pd-catalyzed C–H ethoxycarbonyldifluoromethylation with BrCF2CO2Et has been developed. The use of a bidentate phosphine ligand (Xantphos) is critical for the reaction to occur. A variety of electron-rich heteroarenes, including indoles, furans, thiophenes, and pyrroles, can be ethoxycarbonyldifluoromethylated in moderate to excellent yields. The reactions take place at the C–H bonds adjacent to the heteroatoms with high regioselectivity. This method provides a new protocol for the introduction of difuoroalkyl groups into electron-rich heteroarenes.
