Abstract: The nucleophilic pentafluoroethylation reagent generated by reduction of pentafluoroethyl iodide by tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene (TDAE) is useful in their nucleophilic reactions with aldehydes, ketones, imines, disulfides and diselenides. Irradiation has proved to be very useful in the aldehyde and ketone reactions.
