An efficient Pd-catalyzed stereoselective vinyltrifluoromethylation of aryl halides, through decarboxylative cross-coupling with 2-(trifluoromethyl)acrylic acid is described. The ready availability of the starting materials, the high level of functional group tolerance, and excellent E/Z selectivity make this protocol a safe and operationally convenient strategy for efficient synthesis of vinyltrifluoromethyl derivatives.
