title: Ruthenium(II)-Catalyzed meta C-H Mono- and Difluoromethylations by Phosphine/Carboxylate Cooperation.
abstract: Ruthenium(II)-catalyzed meta-selective C-H (di)fluoromethylation was accomplished by phosphine and carboxylate cooperation. The remote C-H functionalization was characterized by ample substrate scope, thereby setting the stage for meta-(di)fluoromethylation through facile C-H cleavage.
