Fig. 3: Attempts for anionic activation and design of radical activation.

From: Direct transfer of tri- and di-fluoroethanol units enabled by radical activation of organosilicon reagents

a Attempts of anionic activation for trifluoroethanol transfer failed. b Facile β-F anion elimination might be the reason of the failure of anionic activation strategy; we designed a radical activation strategy based on the proposal that it is difficult to eliminate high-energy fluorine radical.
