Herein, we report a dehalogenative 1,2-dichalcogenation reaction of internal fluoroalkyl alkenes and readily available disulfides, thiols, or diselenides for the synthesis of diverse fluoroalkenyl 1,2-enedichalcogenides. Multiple carbon-halogen bonds in perfluoroalkyl-containing alkenyl iodides can be selectively cleaved under mild and transition-metal-free conditions. This protocol features a broad substrate scope, good scalability, and the ability to modify complex molecules. Mechanistic studies revealed that the key step in the reaction is the formation of a reactive fluoroallene, which is readily attacked by nucleophilic thiolate anions to achieve an unconventional defluorinative chalcogenation.展开更多
