In your own lab: The on-site generation of CF2=CF2 from TMSCF3 under mild conditions is possible with a two-chamber system and can be used for per- or polyfluoroalkylation. This study describes a convenient and safe approach for the use of CF2=CF2 in standard laboratories, and provides a new method for pentafluoroethylation.
