We report here the chromium-catalyzed three-component defluorinative cross-couplings of gem -difluoroalkenes with benzyl 2-pyridinyl ethers and aryl Grignard reagents under mild conditions, enabling the convenient synthesis of diarylmethylated monofluoroalkenes in good chemo- and stereoselectivity.
