Popis: The preparation of [(5-(trifluoroethenyl)-1,3-phenylene)bis[2,2,2-trifluoro-1- trifluoromethylethylidene]oxy]-bis[trimethylsilane] 2 in excellent isolated yield from the corresponding aryl iodide 4 is described. The synthesis features conversion of the known dialcohol 3 to the trimethylsilyl ether 4 which gave excellent protection against organometallic reagents and allowed the Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 catalyzed coupling with trifluoroethenylzinc bromide. Compound 2 exhibited good thermal stability with little propensity to form the corresponding F -cyclobutane dimer at room temperature.
